Thank You Bill,
That is an amazing photo and story. Boy would I be suprised if a baby showed up.
Did Rue fly to the feeder?
Guess I am not the only crazy one watching birds....Hummers are amazing me .
Told hubby they must be diabetics .. On sugar.
I have 4 here daily, parked close to the kitchen window and we watch as we eat.
3 females I think and one Male.. When he shows up the others leave..
Thanks again.

I think that several clutches hatched recently because our Hummingbird population has quadrupled in the last few days. At times it seems like a swarm of bees is around each feeder. It is a little scarey to go out to refill the empty feeders.

Great pic.....I made the mistake of hanging my feeder from my clothesline pole. Hanging out clothes can be a real chore at times...you can hear the sound as they swoop at you.

 Bill I swear the male does take offs and Landings like an airplane here. They do make one wonder huh? They bite each other with the beak. How many litters do they have a summer? How many eggs? Tamara.......Did you want them to dye the clothes for you , or suck out the water... Bill record the noise at the feeder and make your own cd........ha ha
