DOUBLED DELIGHT by Lynn Bauer - The delight it truly doubled in this image as two female hummingbirds were caught perching on a branch where two different bougainvillea plants came together. Two hummingbirds cooperating this way is almost unheard of! I spend countless hours watching them, and typically they will knock another bird off their perch and take the spot from them. In this case, a second bird came in and sat right next to the one that had been observing the yard from this spot. They remained together for about 30 seconds before one of them took off. And, the fact that they sat together at this junction of the light pink and dark pink bougainvillea absolutely doubled my delight in this wonderful moment in time!
These appear to be either two female Anna's hummingbirds, or possible one Anna's and one Allen's.
Taken in a back yard garden in Southern California.
