Mama hummingbird

Mama doesn't like it when I get too close to her babies. I think I may have gained her trust now though as I retreated and waited for her to check in. You can see that the geranium is hanging in there despite me not being able to care for it. Soon enough.
She is such a beauty! I love how they care for their young!

@pamknowler Thanks Pam. I think she's actually trying to get them to begin flying. She comes up, hovers, then backs off. I figure she's ready to be back living the good life again by now.

@pcoulson Thanks so much Peter! I have tried often (and failed often) to get a good hummer shot. Finally!
