I'he Whi T e-Be L L y’d Huming Bird. 
T his Bird, and the Bird ddcrib'd under it, are figur’d in the Plate, of their na- 
tural Bignefs ; the Bill is pretty long, ffraight, and (lender, the Points of the 
upper and lower Mandibles a little bending towards each other, of a black Colour* the 
whole Head and Neck, above and beneath, of a fine Blue; the Back, Rump, and 
lefier Covert-feathers of the Wings of a fine Green ; at the bottom of the Neck be- 
hind, is a white Mark, in the form of a Crefcent, the Horns pointing upwards; the 
Belly is white ; the Wings are Copper-colour, inclining to Purple; themiddle Feathers 
of the Tail are Green, the fide Pkathers White, and (bmething longer than the middle 
Feathers; the Legs and Feet of a dark or blackifh Colour ; the Colours in this Bird, 
as in mod of this Kind, feem to be mixed with fine golden Threads, which make the 
w'hole Bird appear very fplendid, when expofed to the Sun-beams. 
The Green and Blue Huming Bird. 
A s this Bird was brought over with the other, and they agreeing in Shape, Size, 
Form of the Bill and Feet, I have conjectur’d they may be Male and p'emale; 
but I leave that to the Determination of the Curious, or future "Difeovery ; the Bill is 
altogether like that above deferibed ; the whole Head and Neck Green ; the Bread 
and upper Part of the Back, Blue ; the Thighs and lower Belly of a dirty brown' 
Colour ; the leffer Covert-feathers of the Wings,, the lower Part of the Back and 
Rump Green ; but the Rump is of an orient Cad, fhining with a golden Glofs, as do 
the Colours on the Throat and Bread ; the Quills and fird Row of Coverts, are of 
dirty Copper- colour, a .little inclining to Purple, the Tail of the fame purplidi Colour, 
the Legs and Feet, Black. 
Theie Birds came together from Surmamy and are both preferved in the Cabinet of 
his Grace the Duke of Richmond,
