Dusk in Baja

Bajamar, Mexico

I live in a small village in Baja Norte. Between my neighbors feeders, and my garden we literally have dozens of hummingbirds, feeding and fighting, from sun up till sun down . Here's a shot from mid August around dusk.

Nice pic. What's the background?

Hi Viceroy, That's a house two doors down from mine. Attached is a day light shot from a couple years ago. The pot in the shot had a bougainvillea that later died, and now has flowers. As you can see all the homes have similar architecture. We all have the dome skylights.

Here's a shot of three hummers. Sorry about the clearity. I have a small camera, and it's digital zoom gets fuzzy when at it's most extreme range. Later in the day there were as many as six hummers competing, at the same time, with honey bee's. I was sitting a few feet away drinking a glass of Chianti enjoying the show.

Than ks Viceroy! Here's another shot, but allot clearer. There are nine of the little guys, and perhaps even a tenth in the photo. I can see what looks like wing flutter in the upper right hand corner. There are times when there's got to be 20 or 30 of these guys on my back deck. It makes my gardening back there very interesting.
