Unexpected Sighting

Sierra Vista, Arizona

I was waiting in Sierra Vista for the Dentist's Office to open after their lunch hour when I saw a
Hummingbird fly in front of the car and down below the hood. I very, very carefully opened the
car door and slowly walked toward the front until I spotted her. What a thrill to see this.

What a wonderful sighting, Carol. Probably difficult to find hummers there this time of year..terrific find and beautifully captured. V

Now I'm really envious! I haven't seen a hummer for weeks! They probably all went to Arizona for the Winter :) A wonderful series of shots, Carol. Such a pretty little gem! And she found the perfect flower for these great captures! V~
