hummies

Okay, so these aren't GREAT photos of hummingbirds, but that's the best i can do at the moment! But isn't she cute? See her by the Trumpet Vine flowers? i am pretty sure it's a "she" - as far as i know, the only hummers in my area are Ruby Throated, and this tiny jewel does not have any red on her,(and i'm not sure i've ever seen red on any of them! Shouldn't there be some boys around?) This one shows up faithfully every evening, her favorite blossoms are the Trumpets and the Red Cypress.



i think the yellow Trumpet Vine is very pretty, and, although Trumpet Vines are almost more trouble than they're worth, when they bloom and the Hummies show up, i'm glad i have 'em!
