Rare blue-throated hummingbird in Texas, USA


This video from the USA says about itself:

Female Blue-throated Hummingbird Makes Rare Visit to West Texas – May 4, 2017

Blue-throated Hummingbirds are seldom seen at the feeders in West Texas, especially at this time of year. That’s why it was a surprise to see a female Blue-throated Hummingbird alight 3–4 times on the back port of the Perky-Pet® Grand Master feeder this week! These hummers are the largest that you’ll find north of Mexico; the females are gray below, with a prominent white eye stripe, less defined malar stripe across the cheek, and a long tail.
