    Re: Blue throated hummingbird

    Blu-thraoted and broud-billed are a rare AZ find and I have seen them in Tucson.

    What are you confused about Carlos? I think that's actually a broud-billed hummingbird from field marks and chest coloring. I am not overly familiar with south and central american hummingbirds, so it could be a similiar species ?

    I would love to take you up on that.. once this economy picks up.

    I used to be a very hardcore birder and photog, but too busy working to pay the bills lately... sigh
