Anna's Hummingbird (Calypte anna) getting more nectar from native Bigberry Manzanita
This is another shot of a female Anna's Hummingbird (Calypte anna) getting nectar from a new flower of native Bigberry Manzanita (Arctostaphylos glauca) in the Ericaceae plant family. I get an even stiffer neck looking at this photo! See my [Previous] photo from yesterday for additional comments. (East Camino Cielo, Santa Ynez Mountains, 12 November 2016)
(Hah - if you flip rapidly between this photo and the other one, you can see the hummer flap its wings!)
