Nice!

Deep ,My hummers are gone ={ Glad you get to enjoy them...you probly have them year round ??
Hi huggergirl. Yes, we have them pretty much all year. However, I'm not sure if they're the same ones, or if we get different migratory waves, at different times of the year. At any rate this morning I had chaos on the back deck this morning. It was a feeding frenzy swarm. Attached is a photo with nine of the little guys vying for four feed holes. My presence didn't bother them at all, and I routinely got buzzed at very close range. Often feeling their wing wash on the back of my neck while trying to get lucky with a shot.
Here's a shot with only five. Actually there were so many buzzing in and out, I couldn't really pick the shot, because there's such a time lag with the digital camera. Sometimes there would be ten of them when I pushed the button, but maybe only two a couple seconds later when the shot finally went. It was simply luck, patience, and non stop parade of hummers.
Wow amazing hummingbird photos! I was just going to ask if they are ruby throat hummingbirds? Are they the ones that were at my house this summer?
Deep do you get anyother than ruby throats ??? I miss mine already = [
Hi growum, and huggergirl. This is the first time that I've really tried to take photos of them, so up until now, I haven't been able to see them close up, or in stop motion. All I've been able to make distinction about with the naked eye is size, and it seems to me that sometimes we get ones that are allot bigger than the others. So I'm guessing that these are a different genus. We probably get different types at different times of the year. But we have them pretty much all year round.
Beautiful ..
I love that one Lily!
It's beautiful Lily. Hope it will attract some of your hummingbirds too!
