Subject: [southbaybirds] Costa's hummingbird at Almaden Lake Park
Dear Birders,
This morning, Sunday, Dec. 28th, there was a male Costa's hummingbird
at Almaden Lake Park. The bird was in a small tree next to the water, on
the north side of the lake, in the North Shoreline Picnic Area. It was
facing the sun (and me) and the flared purple throat feathers, purple head,
and gray breast and were clearly visible. The bird flew off to the north,
over the trellis covering a picnic table, before I could get a photograph.
