Well, David, I enjoyed Hummingbird Hawkmoth Day (no hummingbirds where I live, but plenty of the moths now). I love the sharp eye of this bird as it zooms in; and the diagonal formed by bird and flower is very striking. What a good shot!

A nice image, David, and it is indeed a Rufous-the tan sides give it away. I’ve been watching the male Anna’s that came back recently, but haven’t aimed the camera at him yet.

Hi David
Nicely framed Hummingbird and the Crocosmia coloring is great.
Peter

Nicely composed image of bird and flower with a nicely textured background.
