Kelly Bryan came this morning to do his regular banding session, and soon called to me that there was a Costa's Hummingbird here. What a fun surprise!
I assumed it was a juvenile male, but apparently it's a molting adult male. If you click on the next photo you may be able to make out his new band. Hope he sticks around a while....

Nice - I've only seen Costas in the Las Vegas NV area, in fact, a couple weekends ago.
Very nice! Hooray, Carolyn.
Thanks, folks!
