Thanks so much to so many people for responding about our hummingbird questions. Several people suggested that it is a Black-Chinned and one suggested a Calliope. We had ruled those out because Sibley's pictures do not show the pronounced black stripe over the eye that's visible on our bird. Is it possible that that doesn't matter? We are neophytes and found reasons for rejecting every type in Sibley's and some other books because of one characteristic or another that didn't match. BTW, we are Stephanie Longo and Tom Pavlik (some people mentioned that we didn't provide our names in the posting....)
