A brightly colored adult male Green Violet Ear was discovered visiting a feeder at 2024 W. 18th St. in Sioux City, IA. Lil Owens, of that address, noticed the bird visiting the past few days and contacted her county naturalist with the info AND a picture. On Thursday noon, 14-Sep, Jerry Probst and Bill Huser visited the site, saw the bird and offered this identification. The bird was seen 3 times, perched and in flight, had no visible white in the tail or on the face. The overall dark bird was emerald green dorsally and ventrally with a liberal amount blue (indigo, violet?) on the auriculars extending onto the nape as a narrow band and upon the breast below the green throat. The bill was black and de-curved. The spread tail was dark, appearing blackish. A minimum of 3 Ruby-throats share the feeder with the GVEa and battle among themselves but do not interact with the larger bird. Contact Lil Owens ( 712-258-6049) for visitation or myself for the photo or other information.
