recent photo of a male hummer taken in Baiting Hollow

As usual in may, a male hummingbird is visiting the feeders in Baiting Hollow. Here's a recent photo, taken by Keith Bittner (thanks Keith for this and all your other help).


It's a side view against the light, so the red gorget appears dark, but even without that the squat appearance strongly suggests a male - perhaps Fred, the male that adopted the sanctuary as his territory the 2 previous years. I hope to get some better images and even video soon.
