Hummer Slurping Butterfly Bush

Best on black. I’ve been trying to get a shot of a hummer on the butterfly bush but they prefer the Lucifer and one of the hummers is really aggressive and is chasing all the others off. Finally I got one even though it was from farther away than I’d like.
Thanks for your visits, comments, suggestions, favs. I’ll be a bit absent in the week ahead with my daughter and her family coming from Maryland to visit.

Enjoy that visit! Love the details you got with this hummingbird. Your Butterfly Bush is certainly in much better shape than mine - I'm just getting puny little blooms! This looks wonderful on black. Fav
