Hovering Hummer

This is one of Cherry Creek State Park's faithful sentries. This is the fourth or fifth year that he's guarded the territory below the park office from the same bare branch on an apple tree.

 

He greeted me by buzzing me and then hovering about twenty-feet up for a couple of minutes. I took hundreds of pictures in that time. I thought that I'd just upload a bunch (more than my usual three or four a day) so that you can see a variety of poses as he hovers.
