Haha..... I was talking with the neighbor over a beer and suggested it's about time for the hummingbird feeders to come out. So I walked home and filled mine up and put it out on the back deck where I have clear view from the kitchen window. I then went back for a few more beers. I returned about an hour later and while making something to eat I glanced out to see this little gal sitting at the feeder. (Sorry for the slight blur, the window needs cleaning)

Cool photos even though they are slightly blurry! My vision isn't very good anyway, so things are always a little blurry for me! :( ;) :D

LOL yeah the beer may have had a bit of an influence but for the most part the window was pretty dirt making it tough for my Canon Power shot 20 to focus through the filth. The window has now been cleaned inside and out again.

We've had the feeder out for about three weeks...  Greedy little, cute buggers.  So hard to get a good photo, especially with only a point and shoot type.

Ours will let us stand within two feet of the feeder at face height.  Last year I petted one after it landed on the feeder while I was hanging it, it ducked a little and went back to eating.  Also got a wet-willy from one trying to get nectar out of my ear.   :yike:

We love 'em.
