Hummingbirds

Every year, we put out the hummingbird feeders and then wait for the show. This year, the hummingbirds have not disappointed. There is very little that tops the entertainment that these little birds provide my husband and I as we watch their aerial acrobatic maneuvers.









These birds show little fear of us as we watch them from our deck.

  2. I remember my friends having this type of feeder in Indiana when I visited them 17 years ago - the little birds were an absolute delight to watch right up close - thank you so much for bringing back such happy memories

  3. Hi Norma,
    Two birthdays so close together! This is a good age where kids are more our friends than our kids.

    Those tulip pictures are a showstopper. Just gorgeous. The hummingbird ones as well. You really captured good pictures.

  7. What terrific photographs. I'm quite impressed. We have had a few hummingbirds hanging around the few camelia blooms left and heading toward the red rhododendron. Great job.
