Dear Erik:
Here is a link to my eBird checklist of 2 January 2025.
https://ebird.org/checklist/S207734826 It shows the two hummingbirds
previously reported and a new one.
#1
* Mark Meunier and Seth Nehrbass
* New Orleans Botanical Garden at City Park, in the Butterfly Garden
* FO 19 November 2024
* Black-chinned hummingbird
* Immature
* Male
#2
* Mark Meunier and Seth Nehrbass
* New Orleans Botanical Garden at City Park, in the Hummingbird Garden
(this one is a rules follower)
* FO 19 November 2024
* Ruby-throated hummingbird
* Immature
* Male
#3
* Seth Nehrbass
* New Orleans Botanical Garden at City Park, in the Hummingbird Garden
(this one is a rules follower)
* FO 2 January 2025 (with photos - may have been observed as early as
17 December 2024 but was not photographed then)
* Unknown species of hummingbird
* Age unknown
* Sex unknown
I'll try to get more photos of the third hummingbird. Can you tell what it
might be from the photos in the checklist?
Thank you for your help.
Seth
