lucky chap

This young humming bird was found by my wife. She went into a room that hadnt been used for a while and found him there. He was unable to leave and was weqak. After a short rest and water he regained strength but before leaving us he agreed to do some poses.Sony A7 24/70 with screw on close up lens

Do you know what kind or the species?

Humming bird. Calibre

Pedro, from a quick search based upon your photo what I can tell it’s as you said a juvenile probably female “Glittering Bellied Emerald Hummingbird”

Fantastic. You are right. I was wrong with Spanish name. COLIBRÍ O PICAFLOR

Pedro, thanks for that, your response had me confused as a Spanish referral at all and is took your response as ? To the species, thanks for the proper translation my friend and I’ll try to do the same next time ;)

All and all this says a lot for your image that thousands of miles away someone can look at it and make a proper identification. Good job!
