The slightly odd thing about the one you posted is that her median covert (or is that greater) is whitish. They are typically pretty monotone besides the blue and some faint breast markings.
Yep, I have several images of the all blue male but the females I have not seen at my feeders for some reason. Same thing with the Summer Tanager. Until this year I had not seen the female. Kinda strange.
