Two of my favorites from last year. The second shot was the first time one of my photos ever landed on the Popular page.

My first try at hummingbirds—we don't have any near my house. This was taken at the top of Sandia Crest in Albuquerque.

I love my hummers too.

This is called "The attack of the Honeybees". A tractor trailer hauling beehives overturned on the expressway and we were overrun by honeybees last fall. They hung around until it got cold and then disappeared. Haven't seen them this summer. It took a while for the hummers to get used to the bees and share the feeder.



July 8th, 2012
Somehow I missed this thread, but I have been trying for two years now to capture one of these little beauties, but they have not been liking my feeder for some reason. The other evening while at my Brother's place I was lucky enough to spot this very rare Brittle Glass Hummer, and he cooperated long enough for me to capture a glimpse, LOL. It looks like this will be the closest I come.
