Golden Eagle Art Gallery is pleased to offer an extensive collection of world-renowned artworks by Canadian wildlife artist, Robert Bateman. World-travelled and well versed, Bateman always tells a great story about each of his creations. Here is what he has to say about this piece:
"In flight, the rufous hummingbird's wing motion is so rapid that it appears blurred to the observer. Iridescent and pugnacious, he hovers while sipping flower nectar with his needle-shaped bill. Especially drawn to red flowers, like a tiny bull charging a matador's cape, he darts from one flower to another."
