Male Anna's Hummingbird (Calypte anna) stretching wing and tail feathers.
A second before the photo above, the hummingbird was turned to the left. You can see how much the angle changes the color of the head and throat feathers -- bright pink/rose colored (above), darker and more purplish (below):
Photographed in Cotati on 26 March 2025.
Amazing...I've never seen this so clearly! They move so quickly!
