Leucistic Costa's Hummingbird (Calypte costae), Ventana Canyon (my yard feeder), Pima County

This Leucistic Costa's Hummingbird was photographed by Lois Manowitz on 04 July 2010.

Lois writes:

"This leucistic hummingbird has been occasionally at my feeder. I believe it is a female Costa's. I have normal male & female Costa's, Broad-billed, and Anna's."

Comments on the identification welcome!

Not albino because it's bill, eye and feet are dark.
