"Anna's Hummingbird" isn't exactly the most scientific of names. I looked.
Apparently it was named in 1829 after Anna Masséna, Duchess of Rivoli, whose husband had one of the most extensive private bird collections in Europe at the time.
Reasons aside, this is certainly a brilliant way to get your entire operation funded.

This hummingbird is one of the few species that stick around all year on the Pacific coast. It uses the Isopresso hummingbird design base from the members section.
