Male Anna's Hummingbird - showing green iridescence on his head instead of red!
Male Annas's have brilliant iridescence on their head, and usually it looks bright red or pink... but if the light is at exactly the right angle, the iridescence will appear to be apricot gold, or olive green, or it's not visible at all. this is the first time I've seen a male Anna's appear to have an all-green iridescent head!
