Black-chinned Hummingbird (Female) #0357

White Rock, NM

Archilochus alexandri

The Black-chinned Hummingbirds are the least aggressive of the three we see (Rufous, Broad-tailed,
and Black-chinned). The manage to sneak on the feeder only when the more aggressive ones are off
chasing someone else away. The females are far more common visitors than the males, which I have
only seen infrequently and very early in the morning.
