68 photos to choose from, and it was photo number 68 that became the Photo of the Day. Raul Roa, who has made a name for himself shooting photos of birds in the SGV and Whittier got this beautiful photo. Caption reads: A female Anna's hummingbird, right, feeds a fledgling as it rests on a branch near its nest at the Whittier Narrows Nature Center in South El Monte. The young bird was seen trying out its wings as it flew for a few seconds at a time from one small branch to another. According to the USGS Patuent Wildlife Research Center's website this little birds fledge 18-23 days after being born.
