Description
Original Fine Art Photography by Donna Kennedy...
A Spring morning at a local park, I saw this tiny hummingbird zipping around these pink flowers. With no time to prepare, this was the one and only shot I was able to get before it's departure! I have never seen another Calliope since...Reno, Nevada 719
This is the smallest bird in North America, measuring about 3 inches long and weighing about one-tenth of an ounce. Despite its tiny size, it is able to survive cold summer nights at high elevations in the northern Rockies, and some migrate every year from Canada all the way to southern Mexico. In migration it may be overlooked, often feeding at low flowers and avoiding the aggression of larger hummingbirds.
