Ruby-throated Hummingbird

The woman is Abagail Alfano of Pine, Louisiana - she has been studying the hummingbirds as they migrate daily and one morning put the cup from the feeder, with water in it, in her hand; as they had gotten used to her standing by the feeder - they came over to her hand. She says in touching they are as light as a feather.

Norbert Rosing's striking image of a wild polar bear coming upon tethered sled dogs in the wilds of Canada's Hudson Bay.
