With autumn in full swing and lots of leaves falling and fewer flowers, we noticed more visits from one or two Anna’s Hummingbirds (Calypte anna) around the backyard. They’ve been flitting back and forth and started checking our feeder regularly sometime last week. Not a great snap, but they’re so darned quick its hard to get a decent shot.
With the relatively mild winters here, I don’t know if we’ll see them all winter long, but we’ll keep an eye out. This little guy was content to stop for a quick sip and perch on our feeder for a rest. Here’s a few seconds of video showing him at work.
Enjoy!
