First Hummingbird Visitors

Texas Canyon, Dragoon, Arizona

I was working outside at the "new" house when I saw my first Hummingbird visitors - a beautiful
pair of Anna's, darting in and out of the shadows created by the tree holding the nectar feeder.
This is the male.

Very nice, Carol. These little guys are tough to get in focus when they're darting around so quickly.
Hank Vander Velde01-Mar-2009 02:42
Nice capture Carol. They are sure to be back for a repeat.

Very nice capture,Carol. I see the hummers in Arizona have to share with the bees also.

Magical light on the ruby throated hummer in this excellent, ephemeral capture!

Very nice carol. Looks like the bees are competitors.

Couple of beauties, Carol. A picture of the birds and the bees. :O) Well done.

Nice attempt at hummers in flight. Those bees are so nasty.
