Two male rufouses were buzzing around all afternoon but were too quick for me and my camera to catch. I was inside making dinner when my mom tried to get my attention from the backyard where she was sitting reading and having a whiskey - "Victoria. Victoria. Victoria!!" without disturbing the little green hummingbird sipping from our irises.
Tiny feet!!!
wow great shots!!! i love humming birds but they usually flit around so fast that there is no way to get a good photo of them
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous photos! I have no idea what kind of hummer it is, but you did a fantastic job of capturing it.
ReplyDeleteHummingbirds are beautiful,and are a true sign of summer for me. Gorgeous photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
Oh, so beautiful! I once accidentally swatted a really tiny one thinking it was a bee buzzing about my head (I'm allergic). I felt SOOOOO bad, but the little guy just picked himself up and came back for more (there were some juicy nectars nearby) so I was glad when I realized he was OK.
ReplyDeletewow! what beautiful photos!
ReplyDeletea few weeks ago, a little hummybird buzzed right by me and briefly landed on my head! it was the strangest thing. i love these pretty, odd little creatures. :)
