Magnificent Hummingbird

Next up on my "5" Star Photos is the Magnificent Hummingbird. The Magnificent and the Blue Throated Hummingbirds are the largest Hummingbirds in the US. It is found in the Madrean Sky Islands of Arizona near the Mexican border. It is occasionally found in the extreme Southwest corner of New Mexico and Southwest Texas. Miller Canyon in the Huachuca Mountains of Southern Arizona is the most reliable place, however. The male is very colorful (as you can see from the photo).
