Anna’s Hummingbird
Connect the Dots
I love how hummers have these tiny little dots on their chins. They look like they should make a picture.
Purple Pizzazz
So, I was thinking about titling this one ‘Magenta’ but I felt that there was another color that fit it better but I couldn’t pull the name off the top of my head. So I did what everyone does when they can’t remember something… I check Wikipedia. Shockingly there is an article titled, Shades of Magenta. And although it wasn’t the color that I was thinking of, Purple Pizzaz is definitely the best name out of all of the ones listed.
Whiskers
This Allen’s looks like he needs to shave his little white whiskers! 😉
Diet
The hummers have been migrating through the area and it’s super obvious who is a native and who is migrating through. Look how thin this Anna’s is! All that flying is good cardio apparently.
That Awkward Phase
This poor juvenile Anna’s is definitely in that awkward stage where the baby feathers have fallen out and the adult feathers haven’t quite filled in yet. We’ve all been there, right? When I was a teen I had braces, glasses, and bangs… so I fill this poor guy’s pain.
Make it pop
Like many of you know, I’m a graphic designer by trade and for some reason I just really love the color of this Anna’s head against the green. I can’t tell you how often designers are told to “make it pop” and this reminded me of that because of the colors.
In Your Business
This male Anna’s Hummingbird is desperately trying to see what the other birds are up to. Such a snoop!
Cranky Neighbor
This male Anna’s Hummingbird reminds me of the stereotypical grumpy old man that lives next door yelling at kids to “get off my lawn!”
