...and now back to nature photos... Anna's hummingbird (Calypte anna) in red-flowering currant (Ribes sanguineum). This plant is one of the earliest blooming flowers in the Pacific Northwest, which makes it an important food source for the Anna's hummingbirds that over-winter here and the Rufous hummingbirds that arrive early. Photo captured on a casual stroll through Discovery Park in Seattle. #birds #flowers #spring #PNW #NaturePhotography #ecology
