Hummers not only enjoy nectaring on flowers and sippin' the shugga-water . . .
{They} luv dippin' a beaker in the oranges!!

'Howdy' Adrienne ..
Grape jelly is what needs refilling, in the two lil glass bowls. The feeder is sposed to be for the Orioles! Haint that a mess and a half .. (hee)

That is definitely awesome! I love it!! Perhaps this little hummer has better "taste" than others? ;)
I love watching my hummers have lots of pics of them. but that is a awesome pic and I'm going to see if they would like the oranges have to try it
Awesome photo!!! I've never seen a hummie sipping from fruit! Ain't that something!!! I have seem them snatching gnats from rotting fruit...but your photo is one of a kind!!!

Magpye - I agree with Cat! A unique photo of a little hummer enjoying a piece of fruit. Very cute!
Tilly - Glad to see you have the little birdies too! Some day I hope to attract them to my yard! Until then I enjoy seeing them in all the photos posted here! What fun!!!
WOW ! how cute is that ... I've never seen that either, that must one sweet orange.
That's a first for my ol' eyes too!
How cute! I'm gonna try it, too!
That is just so cute! I'm going to try it too, thanks Magpye! Great photo!
The Red-bellied Woodpeckers and chipmunks like the oranges also! The Red-bellieds will oftentimes keep the Orioles at bay .. until they've had (their) fill.
* Another tidbit about the hummers: they like to sip on grape jelly 'watered down' a good bit, in their hummer feeders.
Thanks, guys ..
