Early every morning in Madera Canyon there is a feeding frenzy. The hummingbirds are awakening from their nightly torpor and they are anxious to eat something. Moose always puts out the feeders at first light, long before we start shooting, so they don’t have to wait. Sometimes, though, they will perch and watch instead of feeding. This Broad-billed Hummingbird took a break just a few minutes after we started shooting. That morning was a little cooler than it had been and he’s a little puffed up. He probably got an early start on the nectar and was just waiting to approach them again.
