Here's a close up of the blooms.

This is the 3rd or 4th year for that Shrimp in my yard. I never have to cover it in the "winter" here. It doesn't always look this good, but it was one of the first plants with any blooms this year, so it's on high up on my list of favorites. :-)

That is the only plant I've seen the hummer on this year and that was the only time I actually spotted him. I happened to be standing at the window when he was nectaring. Fortunately, the camera was sitting on a table by the window or else I wouldn't have gotten those photos.

I usually have seen several by now. My lantana that they loved so much last year hasn't come back yet. If it doesn't show back up soon, I will replant more in the same spot.
