2009 Ruby-throated Hummingbirds Vol. 5

That's great that Ed might still be hanging around. Old faithful!
They seem to be enjoying the fushia more and more now.

Another shot of same bird.

Again of the same bird.

My feeder in front is not well place for pictures, it's in the shade, and have to take picture through a window, with the sun on the other side of the bird. But like the silhouette affect of it.

Nice pics burn! Love your bleeding heart too!

I decided to take down my First Nature feeder as it was getting too many bugs inside. I replaced it with a second Hummzinger.

nice Nanny & Burn!.... I got a few yesterday as well

they were all being very shy yesterday... I plunked myself in a chair behind my agastache ... not one photo by the plant

:(

I did get lots of blue jay and butterfly shots though... just bummed they were not being brave enough to come near me

Been a very disappointing season here so far. I can probably count on my fingers the # of hummer
sightings. And I have 2 feeders & a gazillion nectar plants. Started out promising, with several
earlier than usual sightings, then fizzled. Hate to wish away the summer, but here's hoping for a
better fall migration; I could use the hummer pick-me-up.

Hi Carol, You should be seeing them very soon. The migration has already started for a lot birds.

Love that first pic onewish!

thank you Pelle

I had to really lighten these up since the feeder was in heavy shadow this time of day.

She seemed to have a lot to say!! LOL

and some were best made into silhouettes!

Love those first two nanny!!!!

that second one made me chuckle

Great shots everyone!

Time for a new thread! I'll be back in a moment with a link.
