A Hummingbird Sabbath



As some of you know, I love hummingbirds. I have a couple of feeders around my house. One on my front porch, the other in my back yard. I hadn't filled the one on the porch in a while. Tom hung up our Christmas tree lights on Monday, we both noticed the hummingbirds flying up to the orange and red light looking for nectar. I felt bad that they weren't getting any so I decided to fill up the feeder. I no sooner put it out and there were two of them fighting over the feeder. I decided to get my camera and sit out there and see if I could capture them eating. I was able to take several pictures. I even got a video, I just need to figure out how to load it. Anyway, I think these are the precious species of birds God created. So, enjoy the pics. I forgot to mention that you can double left click on any photo and they will enlarge.

We can only enjoy the hummingbirds in the summer. But I enjoy watching them too! They are so tiny.
