My first successful (?) BIF with the d7200. I hate trying to identify female/immature hummers but maybe a Black-chinned?

With my morning cup of tea, I just love to watch the comings and goings of our humming birds (Ruby Throated Hummers here in Wisconsin) and I noticied early this summer that we had nothing but female hummers here. Thought that was something wrong. Consulted an Ornithologist. My ignorance must have shown there. They were the Juveniles. I guess any dummie would know this except tis I.. However a rare sighting for my friend good shot.

I think it’s a female ruby throat.

The only humming bird east of the Mississippi is the Ruby Throat. For those in the West see
