Signs of Spring III

I saw one of these little hummingbirds a few weeks ago but too briefly to catch a photo. This one, however, settled in on this twig to preen his feathers long enough for me to snap this quick photo. That bright red crown indicates this is an Anna's Hummingbird (Calypte anna), a year round resident of this area.

Great pic; I have never been able to shoot a hummingbird. Your spring teases are brutal to those of us dealing with MORE snow.
