This week's quiz features a bird from a group that is instantly recognizable, but what's the species? With its beautiful iridescent plumage, this hummingbird is a happy surprise at feeders, and is typically the largest of its kind where it’s found in the extreme southwest of the U.S. This clip was taken this year, Monday, April 4th, and comes from our Bird Cams Project’s West Texas Hummingbird Cam (sponsored by Perky-Pet), which should be going live in the next few weeks.
