I think the answer to this question will change on a daily basis, so here are my thoughts today...

The Buff-bellied Hummingbird that I saw for the first time in 2012 thrilled me with his flitting about feeding and chasing off other hummingbirds. It was almost impossible to get a shot because it didn't stay in one spot for long.

Two other birds that I saw for the first time in 2012 were so beautiful that they stay high on my list of favorites - a Cerulean Warbler and a Summer Tanager.

And, I always love to see Painted Buntings. They are such beautiful birds, even when drenched right after a bath.
