Little Visitors

I’ve been meaning to post a few pictures of the smallest visitors we have in our backyard – hummingbirds. We’ve had quite a lot here the last few weeks. I need to refill my feeder, as they are busy eating and drinking every day. I took some pictures a couple of weeks ago, but haven’t had a chance to post them. 🙂

The first photos, I took from inside my breakfast room, with my telephoto lens. I was able to get really close! The second set of pictures, I took outside on the deck. Beau and I went out one afternoon to enjoy the nice weather. I was reading a book, but had a hard time concentrating, because we kept being dive-bombed and bzzzed by the hummingbirds (we were sitting under their feeder, oops!). I went and got my camera and waited patiently for them to fly up over our head.

Hope you have a wonderful day, and find something today that is beautiful, that brings you peace 😀

    WOW, Stacy!! You really did get close. Great photos!!

    I caught one a few times out my dining room window. They love my dogwood tree. We saw a pretty red cardinal a week ago. I never have my camera handy when I see them though. And our screens would show.

  9. Gail Said,

    I’ve never had hummingbird feeders! Guess I should get one sometime. I did refill one of my other feeders, need to fill another and then see if I can clean out my thistle sock to use again.

  10. Heidi Said,

    Oh cool! I haven’t seen a hummingbird in a long time.

  11. JEN Said,

    I love the one of him looking at you. Very cool. I need to refill mine too as I have seen more this week than all year long. I may do that this afternoon.
