I Challenge You!

I Challenge You!
Dinnertime is a real showdown here with the male hummingbirds. He is definitely challenging another male for his territory as he flashes his bright colors.

I thought this was a Rufous hummingbird but after some research he looks more like an Allen's hummingbird

You can see my little videos of him here:

Terrific images Karen. What a beautiful bird. I have only ever seen pictures of hummingbirds and they were very different in colour so nice to see this different type here. I love the colours, like little jewels around his neck. Great videos too. Have a lovely evening and stay safe.

Thank you, Carol. :)

There are many different kinds. We mainly have the Anna's and the Rufous hummingbirds here but I just recently spotted this little chap and that was pretty exciting for a casual bird watcher like me. The colours are really vivid.

Hi Karen

This is so beautiful, and so well taken

Fantastic colours, and such a sharp focus on the little guy too..

Maybe the nicest picture I have seen tonight!

Best Wishes, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!

Enchanted by this beautiful and touching image of yours, where among the tangle of bare and grey branches you discover the sweet beauty of this bird in its vivid colours!
