Some small gems...

A couple weeks ago I was hiking in the Central City area and found many small gems there. Not real gems but some colorful and beautiful flowers. Wildflowers... simple and nice...

 

But also some other gems. There were a lot of hummingbirds, and although I was allowed to see them up close, they flew around all the time!

And some butterflies ;) What a day...

I don't know what this little flower is called, but I love it very much and just couldn't pass by without looking at it with some admiration :)

Another hummingbird hovering over me for a few seconds... can you believe it? Just stopped in the air and stayed there looking at me curiously :)

This amazing bird entertained me for some time later at a friend's place in Parker.

 

More mountain wildflowers...

And this hummingbird is also from Parker ;) Isn't it adorable?

You may find it ridiculous, but I believe the mountain flowers look more interesting than their city sisters... Even though they look the same :)

This Goldfinch is also lives in Parker. It looks like there are a lot of nice looking residents there ;)
