Did anyone just see the story on Channel 11 KARE newscast? It was about =
a
hummingbird that "didn't migrate" with the rest of it's kind, and was =
taken
into a house in Delano, I believe, and is now in a Roseville Rehab =
center.
They had many good video shots of the bird in the newscast, and this was =
NOT
a ruby-throated hummingbird; I'm almost positive this was a juvenile =
male
Costa's Hummingbird based on the shape and color of the gorget molting =
in.
Does anybody know more details about this bird? I have a lot of =
experience
with Costa's in the field and in hand (I'm a hummingbird bander who does
field work in California). I work in the Fisheries and Wildlife Dept. =
at
the U of MN, conveniently near where the bird is--and I plan to check =
out
this bird tomorrow!
