    I think you’re wrong. It’s called Calypte costae https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Costa’s_hummingbird

        Still not sure what you mean. The brightness of the colors changes alot according to the angle like you can see in videos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlYecLQDaUM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDkeIVGmSA8

            I brightened the pic up in Lightroom for my own aesthetic purposes, but I don’t think I went overboard personally. The branch is actually a dried tip of a succulent so maybe that’s where you’re seeing coloration? Here’s another shot, unedited and zoomed out a little more.

              It’s a great photo. Try not to give a shit about what some rando on the internet is complaining about. The adults in the room like your photo
