No trip to Arizona is complete without mentioning Hummingbirds.

Over the years I’ve seen all of the 14 common Hummingbirds and a few of the rarer ones. The Lucifer and Berrylline Hummingbirds have evaded my camera lens (just too dark), but I’ve seen a few of the rarer ones. I love these little guys, their attitude at feeders, their colors and their flying skills. Some couldn’t care less if we’re watching and some are incredibly shy.

But one thing is for sure they are one of God’s most beautiful creations
