A beautiful little lady visited the garden today

I think this is a female bee hummingbird. She was very tiny, maybe two inches tall. But, she rested here on this flower stem for more than 5 minutes while I photographed her from about 10 feet away. She was still sitting there when I left.

Beautiful shots! Your visitor seems to love the purple sage.

Wonder if she is distingushable by the little spot at her eyelid???

Enchanting!

You are very fortunate that she sat for so long. In my experience hummingbirds don’t sit very long at all

@grammyn I was shocked, too. She looked pretty tired. It was rather hot, although not as hot as it has been.
