Back to the series on my "5" Star Photos. Here is a female Calliope Hummingbird. Again, the smallest bird in North America. It is also unusual in that it has a very short tail -- another identifying characteristic. When the wings are folded back they extend beyond the tail. I like this photo because it has some color from the wildflowers and a muted background which lets the hummer stand out.
