Hummingbirds have always held a fascination for me ever since I saw some in a zoo as a child. It's incredible that these tiny birds can survive in such diverse climates.

I have never seen a live hummingbird in nature, only in greenhouses. I really like them. She's lovely.

She is a beauty. I haven't seen any darting around much yet. But my time outside is limited.
