PhotoHunt - Drink


Dad has to be very patient trying to get pictures of the little hummingbird who visits our tube feeders to drink the sugar water.   She flits in and out quickly and doesn't stay for long.  This picture has been enlarged quite a bit so it isn't in perfect focus - I am sorry.

  1. I wish we had some hummingbirds within my eyesight! Unfortunately, it seems like every time my human puts out a feeder, it gets covered in ants. :-(

  2. What a great shot. We don't has a humming bird feeder, but we used to have a hummingbird visit a plan M has growing by the kitchen window. They are so cute as they hover about sucking out the nector.

  5. Great picture. Mom loves hummingbirds but since we have so many cats, she doesn't put out any feeders. We haven't seen feeders like that before. Very interesting. Good job getting that picture.

  7. That's a great picture! I'm impressed your dad was able to get one - hummingbirds are such speedy little creatures.

  9. That's a wonderful photo! We have some hummingbirds that visit our bushes but Mommy hasn't got any feeders up yet. She's a slacker.

  10. Whoa--great picture! She looks like a tasty little morsel.

    Oh, wait--sorry. The Human says that was not polite.

    She's very delicate and pretty and NO ONE would ever even THINK about eating her. Nope, not me!

  12. Good job! Mum got a feeder where they can sit and drink. So a bit easier to get a picture. Plus she uses her fancy flashy box that takes lots of pictures fast.

  13. Simba, don't apologize! That is a cool picture! We haven't seen many hummers this year for some reason. Lately there's been one coming around so mom makes sure she keeps the feeder filled.
