About One of the few times I've seen a hummingbird sitting still!
The spots are probably some moisture on the lens as the shot was taken in a light drizzle, you can see some raindrops on the branches. I didn't expect to see the birds out in that, but I guess when you have to eat, you have to eat!
Taken at the Biological Gardens, UBC Campus.

Dave I am so behind with viewing and commening, will try and have a quick catch you with your uploads - thanks for your kind comments.
This is great, I don't think I have seen any shots of one sitting still, and I have never been fortunate enough to see a hummingbird at all. lovely colours and good detail too

I dont think I have ever seen a live hummingbird at rest. It really shows off it's bill as well as it's colors. Great timing to catch this one. Del.

Kind of looks like he's humming a tune to me. Maybe he's one of those hummingbirds. Great catch, Dave. Composed very well with perfect DOF.
You're right, not often you seen them perched.

Dave, you must be psychic. I was just about to do this comment when yours about Siesta time came in. Thanks so much.
This one is gorgeous. I've never seen a hummingbird let alone one stationary. The way you've captured him with the blurred background is magic. The colours compliment each other perfectly. Also it seems birds in wet weather is the 'in' subject at the moment.
