Image Details:

This is a female Anna's hummingbird deep in the elderberry bush where the light is low and subdued. I ran to grab my camera and fortunately she stayed long enough for me to take this photo. She looks sleepy. Not as colorful and showy as the male Anna's hummingbirds but the females are still very attractive little birds. In certain light they are metallic green above and pale gray below with some reddish coloration under their throats, although far less than the males.
