What kind of Hummingbirds are these?

If you look up a ruby-throated hummingbird like we have in New England you'll see that the females don't have the colorful throat. Now, those models are slightly larger than I'm accustomed to but then again, I'm a little north of you.

Those are not hummingbirds silly...

 

They're the Michigan State Bird - Mosquitoes... average size around these parts...

It is well known that everything is bigger in Texas.       Though not shown on this chart I would guess they are Texas Hummingbirds.  @oliver2-44 has probably seen lots of them.                                       :ychain:

Those look kind of small for a Texas Hummer. Down here Hummers compete with Emu’s , for landing rights.  But no matter the size, shape or color they all taste like chicken. 
 

Yes, this thread has gone to the birds.
