The photo shared with me that was supposedly of the Dane Co. bird was found
online at this website http://www.faintlake.com/EC/Sparkling_Violet-ear.html
The ID of the Monona bird I would say is questionable at this point. Unless
someone else has seen a different photo, the one supplied to several people
this morning is from Ecuador.

Subject: [wisb] Immature Green Violet-Ear Hummingbird in Dane County
Matt sent me a photo of this bird (we will be posting it on our website
later today, but please e-mail me if you are interested in seeing it right
away) and I forwarded it to Bob Sargent, Master Hummingbird Bander in
Alabama. He believes that it is an immature male Green Violet-Ear
Hummingbird. Matt indicates that the bird may have left, but Bob thinks it
will return again to the feeder. Hopefully Matt will keep us posted. If it
returns, we hope that Wisconsin's new hummingbird bander, Mickey O'Connor,
can come and band the bird.
There have been several other Green Violet-Ear Hummingbirds seen in
Wisconsin and Michigan during the past decade, so this would not be a state
record, but still extremely exciting.

Hi,
A friend sent this photo from Monona, where a friend of hers has had this
unusual hummingbird, at least Wed-Sat.
Looks like a black-chinned?
