At least I think it's an Allen's hummingbird. If any experts want to correct me, please do so.
Photographed by a back garden feeder in San Jose, California.
We had this nest in our front yard this spring. They laid two nests with four eggs total, but only one made it.
Even with today's dreary rain I still went out to watch and photograph Ruby Throated Hummingbirds. Very challenging to get sharp images with a shutter speed down to 1/500th of a second.
