A Cluck, a Cumulus, and a Costa

Another cold and stormy day in San Diego made for some good photography. While out getting some pictures of the giant cumulus cloud that was drifting towards the east, I was lucky enough to catch an adult male Costa Hummingbird taking a quick breather out back on the lemon tree. I really wish he would have stuck around for a minute or two so that I could have gotten some more pictures of his vibrant metallic purple feathers. I was also lucky enough to get a halfway decent portrait of one of the chickens while she pecked her way across the lawn.

Enjoy the photographs!
