Black chinned male hummingbird or similar species. I will try again for a picture but I have solar screens on my windows that make it impossible to get an image of the birds from indoors and he drinks from a feeder in a location that is nearly impossible to take a picture from a distance without him flying away.
He has a black looking head and throat that gives the appearance of a white ring around his neck. He has some white tips on his wings. His back is a muted irresdescent green, white looking line in the center of his abdomen but mostly darker in color until the white starts again near/on his tail. This bird is very territorial and has been here since September 2020 at least. The same bird actually hurt a female ruby throated hummingbird a few weeks ago and I brought her to a Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries licensed rehabilitator.
