How to catch a hummingbird, by Zina Boo. (Click on the picture to see the bird actually standing on her finger!)
First, you must hold "wery, wery" still -- even when the mosquitos buzz.
Then, a steady hand keeps the birds from spooking when they come in for a landing.
Next, you have to look like a super-model on a nature shoot. (What is going on with that mouth?!?!)
Finally, you find that zen spot where you are one with nature and micro-fowl flock to you with out fear. OK, so sitting next to a large bottle of sugar-water helps.
But then again, I think Zina is sweet enough to attract hummingbirds on her very own!

wow. she's always been gorgeous, but that one picture is such a knock out!
These are so cool! I didn't know you could catch a humming bird on your finger. Plus, Z is gorgeous...
Magic.
Amazing. What beautiful creatures, the birds and the child.
Ditto the other comments - but what is wonderful to me is that a 4 year old can hold still enough for a hummingbird to land on her finger! Way to go Zina!
that's breathtaking. zina's such a babe.
Magical indeed.
Great photo. Don't you dare go home without saying good-bye to me.

nice. if they were locusts we'd be grossed out but hummingbirds are just so cute!
she looks just like her mama
Amazing! I love the puffy mouth-- hah!
Aaaaand, Happy birthday to you! I hope you had a marvelous day, even if it isn't 49 degrees in Orem... or is it?
Thanks, everyone. Just so you know -- the hummingbirds are waiting for you all to show up in Colorado and land on your finger too.
