Hummingbirds Are Cool

And really hard to photograph.
We have a feeder in the front yard that I fill with homemade nectar that they seem to really like. I was gardening under and around the feeder last night and got to see two not-too-shy hummers up close. This one hung around long enought to snap some pictures of, but they move so darn fast that my shutter couldn't capture them!
It's neat to spend time around them. Now I can recognize their chatter and the sound of them buzzig through the sky. Very cool.
