A very heavily cropped photo of this teeny male Calliope Hummingbird! This was the closest I had ever been to a Hummingbird, so it was a neat experience (down in Weaselhead, far away from anyone's bird feeder). I posted another shot of it ages ago. Look familiar, Phil, LOL?

A very heavily cropped image of this very tiny Calliope Hummingbird, seen down in Weaselhead two days ago. This was the closest I had ever been to a Hummingbird, so I was happy to get a photo in which you could actually see some colour and feathers, instead of just a dark, Hummingbird-shaped silhouette perched on some distant branch, LOL. When you think that a teeny Hummingbird could almost be mistaken for a large Bumblebee : )
