I went to a seminar on hummers Fri night and I have to share. According to the speaker this is a young maile because he has striations on his chin. It was a great seminar. Told you how to tell if it is a male or female by the sixth feather on the wing, how they have been banding the legs and trying to follow their migrations. These little guys are really so interesting! GREAT PIC.
