* * * *
I have looked high and low, but have not had any luck identifying this hummer. It is quite large, the beak is red with a black tip, it has a white underside and not much colour on the back and head, almost a dark grey. I have tossed around the idea that it might be the mate to the previous pictured hummer, but am not convinced because the tail is different.

I can't find it in my book. The closest thing I found is the Violet crowned hummer and I don't think it is that one. sorry!
Glad you are enjoying the weather. We are having our second wave(literally) of wet weather in a week. High wind and 80 mm of rain tonight. If we do not reply with in 48 hours of an e-mail, come looking for us. We may be out to sea!
hi Kag, you could try www.whatbird.com for online bird identification...or if you have an iphone, you can download a bird id ap for it!
