Hummingbird with Honeysuckle

Hummingbird with Honeysuckle" is a Sumi-e (Japanese Brush Painting) by professional artist Brazen Edwards-Hager. Hummingbirds are truly some of the most amazing creatures on the planet. The flight of hummingbirds is amazing to watch. They are able to fly up, down, forward, backward and sideways and can even stop in midair. Hummingbirds are famous for their aerial display. Hummingbirds are very small birds with a high metabolism. A great deal of energy is spent flying, so they must feed almost constantly. Hummingbirds can consume up to twice their body weight in nectar every day. Hummingbird is seen by some as a messenger of love and joy. It symbolizes energy, wonder and swift action.

Great work! They are fun to watch; mine have been flying around like crazy trying to keep the others off the feeders. You'd think they would notice there's plenty for all of them!

Artist Reply: This one I happened to glance feeding off my honeysuckle bush. They are such a delight.
