Female Hummingbird

This little female has been hanging around my front window. Was able to get a couple of shots of her yesterday.  Ann

As always Ann, you shoot a mean picture...

Thank you Walter and Attila.  I just wish the little guys would stand still longer.  I have only been able to capture them through the window.  By the time I am outside they are gone.  I have also had a couple of hummers that are about 1/2 even smaller size.  So far noluck taking a  shot.  I have no idea what they are.  Ann

something that moves a bit like a hummingbird but is half the size is probably a sphinx moth - unless you have a mega-rarity, any h-bird encountered here should be about the same size as any other one

Thanks for the idea.  Perhaps it is a sphinx moth.  Wish I had a picture of it.  It really looked like a minature hummingbird all blue only little.  Ann
