I saw this female Rufous Hummingbird flying around Desert Paintbrush flowers, seeking nectar. They are very fast and agile flyers. They are very aggressive hummingbirds that will go after other hummingbirds (even ones larger than them) at flowers and feeders to get to the goods.

Great shot! We’ve been sitting at our breakfast table this morning, watching a female rufous chase house finches and sparrows away from the vicinity of the feeder she wants to feed at.
