Hummingbird in Hand

This cutie was bouncing about my kitchen. I approached in a calm, authoritative fashion, while speaking softly, and convinced her that I was not malevolent. Twenty minutes after release, I was in the back yard and she returned, scrutinizing me at a distance ranging from 5 to 15 feet for a period of 4 to 5 minutes.
**Its plumage is best appreciated in the 'large' size.**
Life is good.
Research shows her to be a female Calliope Hummingbird.
