Times are hard at Downton Abbey so the staff decided to open their own businesses. How thrilled the Crawleys will be when the coffers start to pour in.

Annas Hummingbird - The Bird Lover Collection

This beautiful art is based on a painting of an Anna's hummingbird by West Coast artist Andrea Walters, who has a passion for native North American wildlife.

Here's an early morning shot of an Anna's Hummingbird, captured in Fountain Hills, AZ.

Magic hummingbird

One of our resident adult male Anna's hummingbirds who needed the "reassurance" of the feistier Rufous hummingbirds to (finally) come and sit on one of the old plum tree branches a few feet away and indulge the photographer in a few closeups.

Anna's hummingbird

If you've spent any time looking at my website, you know one of my passions is photographing hummingbirds. My wife and I enjoy the variety of hummingbirds in Arizona so much we've decided to move here. This is one of the first birds I've photographed since moving to Tucson.

While visiting Arizona, I was treated to a day photographing the beautiful Anna's Hummingbird in a field of lavender. This is a male Anna's Hummingbird. The male's call is scratchy and metallic, and it perches above head-level in trees and shrubs. They are frequently seen in backyards and parks, and commonly found at feeders and flowering plants.

It wasn't until I got an old 1980's vintage Pentax 70-210 Macro zoom that I was able to capture the speckles, and detail, on the head of these fast moving birds. Or, perhaps it's because I retired from my day job in 2015 and have been shooting hummingbirds daily since. This is a young male Anna's Hummingbird that frequented our yard in late winter 2016.

This is my favorite hummingbird photo in my collection. It's an Anna's Hummingbird and I took this picture in my backyard in Northern California. Hope you like it!

We get male hummingbirds only on occasion. The feeders are always full, but it's the girls that stick around the most. I guess the guys just stop by to visit their friends and have a sip or two. :) This guy, an Anna's Hummingbird, stopped by in late May, 2016, for one of those visits.

I will frequently catch a hummingbird in a pose like this, as if it has somewhere to be, NOW. Usually, they're blurry because they move so fast. This guy, a male Anna's Hummingbird, I was able to get clearly.

Enjoy this beautiful rose and hummingbird custom face mask inspired by the art Pierre Joseph Redoute and regular Anna hummingbirds that visit our backyard feeder.

Shoot enough photos of hummingbirds, and you get something like this shot of an Anna's Hummingbird with a face full of spider web. I have no idea how long she flew around like that.
