A photo of a male Anna's hummingbird (Calypte anna), a very small bird with a long thin black beak, pale gray chest and belly, iridescent green back, and bright iridescent reddish-purple head and throat. It is perched on the end of a bare brown branch looking very like a bird on a stick, with snowflakes swirling all around it in diffuse, cloudy lighting, and a few small flakes that have settled on its head visible.
I've taken pictures of birds in the snow on literally one day in my life, I'm afraid, so you have to see this hummingbird a lot. #BirdOfTheDay #snowy 📷🌿🪶

Hi Patrick. This is a perfect picture. Who knew that hummingbirds had such grand tails. They are the turkeys of tiny birds and I mean that in the best possible way.
Everything about this picture makes me smile. Thank you and Happy New Year!

Male. Has the magenta feathers on the head. Always be sure to accentuate the stick.

ALERT - Bird on a Stick!
The often discounted Gray Catbird. It's not colorful (except its song) or exotic. But I find them quite handsome, cheerful little things.

Oh brother...another Bird on a Stick.
Forgive me. Tree swallows are beautiful, though.

Another gnatcatcher, scowling at me and then rocketing straight to the sky

Angry Bird?
I think this is a Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher. Whatever it is, it seems irritated.

Classic 'bird on a stick' shot, but at least this one has personality! This male stonechat was keeping a close eye on me, probably judging my photography skills. 😂📷
