About This Image

Hummingbird, Rufous male, bathing, displaying his beautiful red gold throat/gorget. His tail is splayed out in the water, and he has tiny waterdrops on his head.
He put on a good performance, at one point he was swimming across the top of the water, like a little boat. First time I'd seen him do that. I got one shot where he's laying his head and long beak right down in the water.

many thanks, Carol, Alex and Susan, for the lovely comments. Much appreciated and glad you like the photo. He does have such lovely colours on his throat, just glinting when the light catches them in the right way.
