The Hummers Are Here

April 23, 2009

I love to watch hummingbirds.  It’s always a thrill when I see the first one in the spring.  I can’t remember when I first saw one this year and got the feeder hung up, but they’ve been here at least a couple of weeks. 

I just happened to be fairly closeby with a camera when I saw one visiting the honeysuckle nectar bar.

And here’s a little closer shot…

It’s one of my ambitions to someday get a really nice, sharp clear picture of a hummingbird.

But for now it’s just nice to see them flitting about.
