Work Ethic

This female rufous hummingbird is collecting material to build her little nest. I saw how hard she worked, and how focussed she was on her goal during the several hours I was privileged to witness this scene. I wanted to portray her tiny size within the cattails. I made this image with a Nikon D2Xs and 200-400 mm lens with a 1.7 TC on a monopod between Campbell River and Courtenay on Vancouver Island, British Columbia.
