Well, it's not either of those. ;) It's a Slate-throated Redstart.

Sorry if I added confusion... I completely agree with Red-breasted Merganser.

Just want to say, Rosa, Red-breasted Mergansers are winter birds in Florida as well. The last ones of them tend to leave in May, according to eBird.org.

Agree with Smew. Looks like it's in one of the San Diego Zoo's exhibits. (looks just like it, when I went)

Thanks, Fyn!

Thanks! This is moth #1 on my confirmed moth list. :) I have a word document with my current two sightings.

Looks better for an Anna's, IMO.

Male Black-chinned Hummingbirds don't have part of their gorget on their foreheads like that bird does. Depending on the angle/brightness of the light, their gorget will be bright or wont be. The color of the gorget isn't actually caused by pigment. Here's a good excerpt from the wiki article of hummingbirds:

"In many species, the coloring does not come from pigmentation in the feather structure, but instead from prism-like cells within the top layers of the feathers. When light hits these cells, it is split into wavelengths that reflect to the observer in varying degrees of intensity. The Hummingbird feather structure acts as a diffraction grating. The result is that, merely by shifting position, a muted-looking bird will suddenly become fiery red or vivid green."

While Black-chinned Hummingbirds do have white tail tips, they would be much lighter overall.
