Thanks! I saw the hummer feeding at the Torch Lily when Iwas drinking coffee on the back porch. I went inside and got my camera and waited another 30minutes or so before he came back but I snapped several pictures in succession and was able to get some good shots. Digital cameras are wonderful! LOL
Here's another shot showing the ruby throat.
