A female Anna's Hummingbird "Calypte anna" that has taken up winter residense in my garden.  She actively guards the two feeders that I have place for her chasing any other birds away if they try for a free meal.

In keeping with the red theme, this was one of my first attempts to capture a Hummingbird.  Spent the weekend in San Diego  last summer and had this chance encounter with a hummingbird in the Spanish Village in Balboa Park.  The red background is one of the colorful doors of the Spanish Village shops.
