Felicity ShouldersI took these photos last week, but it took me this long to narrow down my favorites at all! This is an adult male Anna’s #Hummingbird. We’re months into mating season for them now, and I am seeing the males a lot, singing their buzzy song and perching high and proud. It’s one time of year they don’t seem as grumpy to me :)
@Dianepatterson take care 🙏
