I must admit to clinch all these features without reviewing photos would be hard as i am sure you are aware they seldom sit still long enough to properly tick all the boxes in the field. Like i said a very educational bird, but hopefully we wont be getting too many of them. Male Rubythroat next, that shouldnt be hard !Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03241412207868644732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9084382800826457412.post-69865315527118890782009-09-28T18:07:43.818+01:002009-09-28T18:07:43.818+01:00Would you mind expanding briefly on a few of the d...Would you mind expanding briefly on a few of the distinguishing features Jason?
