Description

After finishing this coloured pencil drawing, I uploaded it to the computer and created various digital versions of it, using several software applications. This is just one in the series.
There is something quite magical about these birds. They are attracted to the nectar of various blossoms and are so tiny that we often miss them as they flutter from flower to flower. When you catch site of one, you can't help but marvel at their ability to stay hovering in one place as they sup on the sweetness of nature. Most hummingbird species measure 7.5–13 cm in length. The smallest of these birds is the Bee Hummingbird, which weighs less than 2.0 g (0.07 oz).
In many aboriginal communities, the hummingbird symbolizes peace, love and happiness. To me, purple is a very happy colour.
