The feeders at the La Paz Waterfall Gardens attract a wide variety of Hummingbird species, and I always enjoy shooting there.  I was unable to identify this species, and posted this at the forum at Whatbird.com, and one of the very knowledgeable birders there identified this as the Copopery-headed Emerald hummingbird.
