We are returning Thursday.

This past week my son was here and we had a very lucky hummer day with photos. We both wore our hummer compatible shirts...he with an all red one and me with my yellow with red flowers one (he calls it my old lady shirt --
.
) So we were on the dock in mid afternoon and two migrants came by to see my flowers. It was a bonanza because they were not afraid of us. I have a 12 X zoom Sony auto and he had a Pentax SLR with a huge zoom. My auto however worked best. Here are 3 shots...which are the best I have ever taken. I used another setting (the action one) to get these.
It only works in bright light however. We were so excited. It was fantastic. Hummers are so difficult to photograph.
We had about a 20 minute window.

When I get back I'll explore the photo album more carefully, but I don't have much online time here while charging.

We are having wonderful weather now, the best of the whole season.

Wow ((Mrs. D)) those are absolutely fantastic! Another good picture taker is Scrabble.

More fantastic is you're coming home! Have a great rest of your vacation and looking forward to having you back.

Great pics MrsD...and I miss you!

Great pix! And you are SO right about how hard they are to photograph. I've taken 100's of pix of hummies and none are any good LOL!


The hummies in my yard are so used to me I have to call out when I go between the feeder and *their* tree, so they don't fly into me.

Yesterday, I caught one peeking in my screen door. It was like he was thinking "You peek out at me, now where are ya?"

wow mrsD those pics are amazing
.


so glad your weather is good

we miss you

They're wonderful photos, mrsD! It's like a celebration of the life of the poor little one that died in my yard yesterday.

Thanks for sharing them.
