Description
A male Anna’s Hummingbird with wings thrown fully open — and lit so the feathers turn translucent, like panes of stained glass. A hummingbird’s flight feathers are astonishingly thin; catch them spread against the light and the wing becomes a fan you can see straight through, every feather shaft drawn in silhouette.
It’s a fitting way to see the hardest-working wings in the bird world. An Anna’s beats them around fifty times a second, swiveling at the shoulder in a figure-eight that lets it hover, back up, and fly upside down — machinery this photograph freezes into a single luminous instant.
