Hummingbird and Mexican Sage

Yesterday I went out in search of hummingbirds. They are one of my favorite wildlife subjects. They are small, fast and tend to hang out around plants that can easily confuse an autofocus system. In other words- a blast to try to photograph. I found this one at the San Diego Botanic Garden.
