Hummingbirds!


I'm standing about 3 ft away--- the females are brave--- whizzing around fast as lighting and humming so loud. Each one sounds like a 10 lb bumblebee-- I've been startled many times over the years into thinking I'm under attack...

This is a male-- more colorful with the ruby throat but a bit shy...

    Thanks Delynne! Took lots of luck and patience to stand still and good sneaking ability-- I'm good at sneaking up--- probably the Parker/Wood hunter genes kicking in...
