Rufous Hummingbird Female
by Jess. ( Lady.D.)

Lots of Rufous Hummingbirds are coming to the feeder this year,
I have to fill it every other day now. Hard to catch them sitting still for a moment.
The males are brilliant but very rambunctious and rarely sit for a photo.
Here is a sweet little female.

Nice catch, I know how hard it is to capture a shot of a humming bird.

Very nice composition you have there. I could sit all day ad watch these little creatures. They are really beautiful and you've done an excellent job in capturing this one.
