Description
This is a photograph of a female Anna's Hummingbird pausing for a brief moment before taking a drink at the feeder. A lemon tree is in the background creating the golden glow behind her. Male birds have wonderful red heads that glisten in the sunlight, but appear dark gray in the shadows. The female is green on her back with a mottled grey/white belly. She may also display a few of the red feathers at her throat that the males have over their entire head. When you look closely at the male, you can also see touches of gold, copper, bronze and green on the feathers that appear red. The hummingbirds have a very green back and tail feathers that are tipped in white and black. These little acrobats are found mostly in the southwest regions of the United States, including Arizona and farther south into Mexico.
