Rufous hummingbirds are amazing little speedsters that migrate from Mexico to Alaska and Northwest Canada - 4000 miles - twice a year! This is an oil painting I did from a reference kindly provided by wildlife photographer Barry Outdoors.

Though they have a legendary reputation for being extremely feisty, the Rufous hummingbirds seem to be subdued this year, stealthily sneaking in visits to the flowers before suffering the wrath of the resident Anna's hummingbirds. This beautiful little stranger was camping out in the California Lilac, and guarding her precious stash of nectar from within this large cage-like shrub.

This is a little oil painting I did of a rufous hummingbird. These zippy little guys visit our hummingbird feeder in the summertime. They're super fast, adorable and surprisingly fierce.

This guy has been a frequent visitor to the yard in Winter/Spring 2015. Shot with a Pentax K-3 and SMC-A 70-210 zoom, f14, 1/1000s, ISO 2500.

The field guide to hummingbirds in North America indicates a female Rufous Hummingbird is indistinguishable from a female Allen's Hummingbird. The description is the same, and perfectly describes the bird shown here sampling a bromeliad flower. You be the judge.

A small hummingbird for your nature friends

This is a shot of a Rufous Hummingbird, taken in April, 2014. Until I got this shot, I didn't realize their gorget flapped about like that.

Two shiny rufous hummingbirds!

Did you know that the hummingbird is the only bird that can fly backwards. The Rufous Hummingbird is especially known for being able to fly long distances. During their migratory season these hummingbirds are known to fly up to 2,000 miles.

This whimsical artwork will appeal to fantasy and fairytale lovers, as well as bird and nature lovers. The artist, who loves birds, chose to paint a rufous hummingbird since she was inspired by the species that visits her garden.
