Location Jeremy Ranch Road, Morgan, UT
This one took a long time and lots of observation to figure out. He kept coming back to the same section of flowers, probably about ten times before Logan and I decided to move on.
While that sounds like a lot of opportunity for observation, hummingbirds are just so hard because they move around so much, and the colors usually don't materialize. The light has to be just right. But we were eventually confident in the identification as we studied our field guides. All in all, a very fun puzzle.
And I guess I can't really complain about how hard he was; at least he did come back over and over. He gave us a chance, unlike other hummers I've stumbled across.
