Like the flowerpiercers these guys pierce the base of the flower to get the nector.

Gorgeous bird and shot.I agree with John,he looks cranky or like its got a supersize ego with the head positioning and the look in the eye.

Well they are cranky if another hummingbird tries to feed on their flowers.
