Description
Black-chinned Hummingbird in full tiny splendor. Hummingbirds fly incredibly fast and migrate for hundreds of miles, all while weighing less than 2.5 grams! I was excited to get this shot while on a trip to Arizona.
From Cornell Labs: "A small green-backed hummingbird of the West, with no brilliant colors on its throat except a thin strip of iridescent purple bordering the black chin, only visible when light hits it just right. Black-chinned Hummingbirds are exceptionally widespread, found from deserts to mountain forests. Many winter along the Gulf Coast. Often perches at the very top of a bare branch. Low-pitched humming sound produced by wings."
