Little Hummer (Archilochus colubris)

Not as good a shot as our American cousins, but another first for me. It was great to watch these small birds, coming and going to the feeder. Some of them appeared quite aggressive, chasing off rivals, and bigger birds. My youngest granddaughter Saabrah, tells me this is a juvenile, or female, as it doesn't have the ruby coloured throat.
