Howdy All!
Now that I have your attention, I will give you what details I have and you can decide whether or not to give chase.  A couple of birders from Kalamazoo, MI visiting Kelleys Island found a large hummingbird [perched] around 4:30-5:00pm (today, May 13) on the North Pond Trail about 30 yrds beyond a trail split on the right side of the trail as you head out toward the boardwalk. 
Description:
* Easily bigger than Ruby-throated Hummingbird (initially called "sparrow-sized")
* Decurved bill
* Black splotches on chest (running down the center)
* Green-backed with maybe some purple at or near the tail
* Didn't fit any of the pictures in Peterson's Guide (Eastern guide--the mango is not in Peterson's)
These descriptions were given to me without this couple having any knowledge of what a mango looks like, let alone what it is or where it's from.  It was I who added the possible ID of Green-breasted Mango to the story.  The couple was showed pictures of the mango *after* they had answered my questions about the bird.  The man had 4 yrs of birding experience and the woman had just a year.  They were not trying to make it into anything.  They just thought it looked really odd.  Their complete naivity to this bird lent credence to their story [to me, anyways] despite their level of expertise.  Several other birders from Kelleys Island Audubon and I went back out right after getting this information (7:45-8:15pm) and looked for the bird but without success.  A hummingbird feeder is being put up tonight along the path near where the sighting occurred.  I will be out at the location early tomorrow morning.
I am posting this on the details above for your information.  This bird has not been verified.  I do not know the birders personally.
