Do you see the hidden birds? There are atleast four, not counting the obvious ones!

Homing in on a garden covered with candy-colored morning glories, an Anna's Hummingbird prepares to feast on nectar. In exchange, the tiny hummingbird unknowingly carries pollen to fertilize other tempting blossoms.

Bird and flower are a perfect match. The hummingbird's long bill can probe deeply into the morning glory's tube of petals for the sweet nourishment. In a blur of tirelessly flapping wings, many blooms are visited to satisfy the bird's demanding daily requirement of nectar, greater than the bird's total body weight!

All of the more than 300 species of hummingbirds in the United States feed primarily on nectar, and therefore serve as important pollinators. Watching them obtain nectar can be a source of endless interest. Glittering color, swift flight, and beauty make the scene as captivating as any that a garden can offer. Now, with this enchanting premier collector's plate, you witness this spectacle of nature, along with a few hidden surprises. It's a magnificent treasure sure to provide you with continued pleasure. Enjoy it!

The creation of the fine collector's plate you have just acquired and whose authenticity is certified by this document is the result of work by an international cadre of skilled artisans. After the plate art was created in the United States, a fine ceramic transfer, incorporating pigments carefully chosen to faithfully re-create the vibrant beauty of the artist's original, was created in France and Germany and permanently fired into the fine Japanese porcelain plate body at more than 1,460° Fahrenheit by talented craftsmen and craftswomen in the United States.
