A Morning Feeding Frenzy

Hummers galore this morning. Must be stocking up for the trip south.

So many birds that the bees were trying to come in under the radar to get a spot. :D

These pics aren't nearly as good as I'd like, but hey, I'm working on the boss for that first DSLR. It takes patience.

More of the morning's shots here (http://dabudman.smugmug.com/gallery/3466309#188984692).

Thanks for looking.

they're doing more fighting at my feeder too...it's fun to watch but I suppose we should put up another feeder on the other side of the yard.

Socrate, Dave,

Thank you. Yes, tons of fun to watch. We've been feeding them for years and never, ever get tired of watching them. The fighting is funny and the good thing is that no one ever gets hurt. :D

Hummers are very territorial. You definitely were catching the action.
