Deep magenta throat and crown of male Anna's hummingbird (Calypte anna)(click bird for larger image)
Yesterday I said that the male Anna's hummingbird can have a completely magenta head. On cue, my charming bride captured this image of a male in full display. I guess the male in the earlier pictures is either a hybrid species, a juvenile, or just a mutant. Perhaps it helps that the sky was overcast today.
