No respect at all from this hummingbird that landed and stuck his tongue out.

Funny, he doesn't look like the Roadrunner - except for that tongue! Nice shot, but the jpeg compression seems to be a bit too high.

Very impolite. Great shot, just right.

thanks bud, I think they have a major migration headed South through your area. Tough little birds to travel that far.

Fair enough! I saw roadrunners in the desert and hummingbirds in California. Both very cool!
