Taking A Break

Hummingbirds spend more time perched than flying or hovering so I wasn't surprised to see this Broad-billed beauty sitting for quite some time among the branches in Madera Canyon.

There are a lot of cool facts about these little jewels of nature but when it comes down to it, hummingbirds don't read books on what they are supposed to do and tend to do what they want.

Just for fun, take this ten question hummingbird quiz. How did you do?
