Ruby-topaz Hummingbird

Persistence paid off

Even though I have taken thousands of pictures of hummingbirds, still I cannot ignore them. Every time I see one I need to take a photo, again. Once in a while they reward me for this persistence.

How could you pass up this bird? Truly one of the spectacular hummingbirds of the world. You did a nice job of catching him with the right light angle and the flared tail adds greatly to the appeal of the picture. Great job and pic!
