This beautiful little male Annas hummingbird was showing off for the camera!
From Wikipedia:
Hummingbirds are the smallest known and smallest living avian therapod dinosaurs.[10][11][12] The iridescent colors and highly specialized feathers of many species (mainly in males) give some hummingbirds exotic common names, such as sun gem, fairy, woodstar, sapphire or sylph.[

Thank you Jolanta. I do believe this is a Male Annas Hummingbird. He was boasting about his looks when I got this shot! :-)
