I would think that possibly Maitreya would have photos. I have seen BT
hummingbird in his old yard before at his feeders...

I will look but I don’t think I do.
Joe Evanich had photos of a female in La Grande around 1978 or so (a bird
I saw later). Might be in Am Birds from that time, check the searchable
version on the OBA web site.
I think there have been photos published in OB.
I have seen it five or six times in Harney.

Hello all,
There is exactly 1 photo of a BROAD-TAILED HUMMINGBIRD in the Oregon eBird
database, the vagrant (male) to Jeff Harding's yard in Linn County and
taken by the man himself. As the species was removed from the review list
by the OBRC in 1981, I find this a bit curious that we don't have more
photos of this species.
I was wondering if anyone has any photos, taken in Oregon, of Broad-tailed
Hummingbird that they wouldn't mind sharing?
Time/date/place would be appreciated.
This species has been suspected of breeding in Oregon, but that has never
been documented.....and so it remains at that level = suspicious.
Cheers,
