Look at female Blue-throated, It appears to be a bit too gray for a Mag.

I am no expert on hummingbirds but your call of a Magnificent Hummingbird female looks good to me. Great photos.--

CoBirders,
This bird showed up this cold morning. I’ve had feeders out (for stragglers) but now I’ve cleaned/refreshed them. This bird is large (at least 50% if not more than the normal broad-tailed hummingbirds). It is skittish, likely female, is green with light grey chest, has white behind the eye, a long/large slightly curved down bill, and (especially when stretched up) a very long neck. I am still attempting to get photos, but I’d love any input:
regards
Adam
