Thirsty!

This is the mother hummingbird in my back yard, off her nest briefly. She comes to drink and then she's right back in her tree.

Awesome shot Kim. I tried for some like that this summer but didn't have any luck.

You'll have lots of luck here this summer. Seems like there's always one or two floating around the back yard. Does she look big to you? Do they get big before they lay an egg?
