I have also seen a hummer that looks just like a ruby-throat or a black-chinned except that its throat is yellow instead of black, purple, or red. There was not just one of them, but several. I also had several regular looking black-chins and ruby throated hummers to compare them to, and there was a definite difference in the hummers. I'm thinking of asking the county extension service to come take a look at them, but they haven't shown up at my house yet this year. Here are a few pictures of the hummers that I saw with yellow gorgets.
