I saw two hummingbirds when I was there.

The first one was on Pier 39 which was the last place I would have thought one would be. On the decking at the top by restaurants and shops there are half a dozen flower tubs. And there was one there about 5ft away from me but I missed getting a shot. I was gutted! I just couldn't get it in focus and it was bombing from tub to tub.

Then we were by the sea somewhere north of San Luis Obispo and south of the Elephant Seal beach and we stopped and obligingly the hummingbird was on some flowers and, after going away, had the good manners to come back when I was ready
