You can see this feller eyeing a female flying overhead in the final pic, after which he flew off to see if she was impressed.

Hummingbird gorgets (the shiny part) only reflect color at certain angles. They can flex these gorget feathers to change colors and get the attention of not only photographers but female hummingbirds!

Thanks! This little guy was fearless. I guess the bugs on the tree near me were too delicious to resist

Too many Harlequin Ducks? Oh, well!

A striking waterbird floating on brilliant blue water. The bird features a glossy navy blue head with distinctive white facial markings, a russet accent at the crown, and a gray bill. Its elegant body displays a sophisticated pattern of black, white, and hints of chestnut coloration. The vibrant bird creates gentle ripples as it glides peacefully across the sunlit water surface.

They really blur the line. I wouldn't want to be caught with an apple around one of these guys

Don't worry, I'd never get this close in the wild (especially with my 300mm lens!) - photo taken at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park
