Mark F Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I'm wondering if this could be a Black-throated Hummingbird. Seen a few days ago on the coast near Big Sur. Thanks for your help! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvoryBillHope Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Looks better for Anna’s (pink, flared gorget, pink forehead). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark F Posted April 6, 2019 Author Share Posted April 6, 2019 Oh, OK. Thanks very much. Seems that Anna’s are by far the more abundant hummingbird in the parts of California that I’ve been to — mostly East Bay and South to Santa Barbara. Or perhaps they are the most tolerant of people and so I just see them more. Having speculated, I guess I’ll go look it up somewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can also depend on environment; some species are more likely to be seen in cities and towns, while others keep to forests or undeveloped areas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
