If it were a male Rufous/Allen's, it would be very rufous over most of its
body and the gorget would be orange. This just looks like a male
Ruby-throat to me.

I would like some other thoughts on this hummingbird from this morning,
that I think was also
present 2 or 3 days ago at Beaver Lake.
It seems pretty dark in the field, I note the small/narrow straight bill,
rufous belly color,
black throat.
What do you think?
