1. I am always unreasonably jealous of hummingbird photos, as they are not native to Britain.
   Just lovely, Susanne.
   Best wishes, Pete.

   • Thanks so much for your comment Pete. I feel lucky to have them living in my backyard. 😊

2. Such a beautiful metallic purple color! I believe there are many more varieties in the West and we only have the Ruby-Throated Hummingbirds here, so these are a treat to see!

   • Yes, I love the color! I’m glad you enjoyed them. 🙂 I’m pretty sure it’s the Anna’s variety though it can be hard to tell. They all seem to have similar features.

3. We also have the Ruby-Throated, This year they had a field day with the hundreds of bright read cardinal flowers that self-seeded all over our yard.

   • Wonderful! I just love them! 🙂

4. Terrific photos of these magnificent creatures!

   • Thanks so much! I just love to watch them! 🙂

5. So cool! I just brought my hummingbird feeders in today to wash and refill them. (So far they are still in the kitchen sink 😬) I’ve been a terrible hummingbird “mom” lately and the feeders have needed filling for a couple of weeks! But now I’m inspired!

   • Happy to inspire you! 🙂 I try to keep them full but sometimes forget too. But with winter approaching I need to be faithful to those beautiful birds so they have plenty to eat as other sources dry up!

     • Yep!

6. These are remarkable shots! Thank you for sharing with us. 🙂

   • Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed them! 🙂

7. Wonderful photos!

   • Thank you so much! 🙂

8. The hummingbirds are beautiful and the photography great.

   • Thank you so much! I’m happy when I’m in the right place and they stay put long enough so I can get some pictures. 😊
