Throat-on-fire: Anna's Humminbird at Lake Hodges

I know it's only been three weeks since I last posted photos of Anna's Hummingbirds. But it is the season for the males to "sing" and display. And what gemstone brilliance--even under overcast conditions (or maybe because of the overcast conditions?).

First a photo from February 10th. It has a very nice composition, I think, somewhat smaller-in-frame.

Next some photos from March 1st, which are closer and have more intense color.

More photos of Anna's Hummingbirds in San Diego from eBird. Click on the photos to rate (1 awful, 2 poor but identifiable, 3 average or small, 4 very good, 5 magazine cover worthy). (How and why.)
