I saw this hummingbird in my Hong Kong Orchid yesterday. It was very brown and I think that she might be a female rufous.
I predict that the bug upper left is not long for this world.

Your beautiful hummer looks like a female Rufus Hummingbird. Very beautiful thanks for sharing Makes me want to buy a camera now. I mean if you can do it.... Beth
I really enjoy your photos. The hummingbird in your recent post is most likely an Allen's Hummingbird as most Rufous Hummingbirds should be in the Northwest by now. However, females of the two species can only be reliably told apart in the hand.
