This was one of those remarkable photo opportunities that one is occasionally fortunate to find. The hummers loved the red hot pokers in the front yard in Shelton, and they were there frequently. This was near dusk which made the lighting very interesting. The downside is that I don’t know which species this is, Anna’s or rufous. It’s one of the two, and very busy, as hummingbirds typically are. The pic was taken on 1 June 2004.
