Description
Beautiful little hummer grabbing some shut-eye while perched on a limb in our pear tree. He was guarding his food source, and fell asleep...for a whole minute, which is probably a good long nap in a hummingbird time frame.

What a sweet capture! Hard to catch a hummer napping, those crazy little energy balls!

Amazing! It seems to me that this is the first time that I have looked so closely at a small sleeping hummer! Nice picture Brooks! What grace when he flies over a flower!

Awww Brooks! I am so incredibly jealous you are able to get close to your hummers! What a precious capture this!! And yes, in hummer time, it must be have been a good nap, lol! Ours are extremely wary of humans, however I have decided in the warmer climates when they are around all year, they seem to be much friendlier. Happy you have these 'other worldly' flying fairies about you. They are magical for sure.

Yes, Sharon, the hummingbirds are so special. And I got to catch one taking a snooze, a quick one, lol. I really love getting a good clear shot...and they actually do sit still a few feet from me, which helps! Thank you for your visit & lovely comments.
