    Holy Cannoli. I never thought I’d be taking photographs of hummingbirds. These are incredible creatures!!! There are several visiting today, as well as a huge colony of ants. LOL This guy is very obviously a Ruby Throated Hummingbird. I love him and want to catch him and pet him and snuggle him close and call him George.

    Hi, love your scratch and sniffer. I dusted last night, (exciting me on a Sat night, huh?) so I didn’t smell a thing, but I laughed! Why George? Good name for a dog, sure, but I would think it would need a much more delicate name. Oh, everyone get out your prayers for those poor people on the gulf. I’m afraid for them. Hugs, clara

    Great capture. I love these birds as well. So hard to get a great shot of.
    you realize Goerge would not be happy if he had to snuggle :wink:

    I love the George reference, too. I always use that one when I want to pet and hug something!

    Thanks everyone! I relocated my feeder today to see if they’d be shy right in front of my window. They aren’t. I’m working on my camera settings to get better (macro) photographs of them!

    I think I’m addicted. :razz:
