Description
Original Fine Art Photography by Donna Kennedy...
Photographed in Reno, Nevada
Male Black-chinned Hummingbird-Archilochus alexandri
Over much of the west, this species is widespread in many habitats at low elevations, often coming into suburban gardens and nesting in back yards within its range. Several other western hummingbirds may stay through the winter, at least in small numbers, but the Black-chin is almost entirely absent from the west in winter.
A Black-chinned Hummingbird’s eggs are about the size of a coffee bean. The nest, made of plant down and spider and insect silk, expands as the babies grow.

Donna – congratulations on this image being selected as an initial candidate for consideration in the May 2023 "Photo of the Month" for the Go Take a Hike Photography Group. Even though not advancing as a finalist, this image is most worthy of recognition as a superb photographic effort, so congratulations and well done!
