Thanks giving trip to the Desert, side trip to the Canyons. These guys were buzzing around. Costa's Hummingbirds was being chauvinistic and shooting the males. Hard to pass up the flash of purple.

    Nice. I'm jealous- never seen a Costas.
    I like 3 and 5, nice show of color, and I love it when their tiny little feet are in focus with their heads.

    is that a bee also caught in 3?
    Yeah, if you recognize the avatar, new user name.

    Yes it is a bee. I almost cloned him out but I decided to leave him in.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
