Beauty of the Humming Bird on Island

Rufous humming birds swoop down to our feeder and then vanish as fast as they appear.  They are so fast and it is hard to take pictures of them.

This afternoon we are visiting our friends in Parksville.  Shirley and Gary have a different type of hummingbird then we do on Gabriola Island.  Shirley's feeder has attracted the Anna Hummingbird which has a beautiful bright pink head on it.  She has made friends with the bird and takes this picture with my camera for me.  Beautiful!!
