Now that would be a cool bird to see. Nice job Cheryl.

Thanks Sandy! It was great seeing him, just goes to show... you never know what you'll get :) My hummer is at about the same time schedule as yours... problem is.. you never know where he'll light. I took the feeder down to make him go to the flowers, but there seems to be too many flowers for him to choose :( and I couldn't get a shot off.

Thanks Jeff.. Surprises me to hear you haven't seen one, I would have thought you'd have lots in your neck of the woods..

Very nicely done Cheryl. I have only seen one in my life and I was far from home.

I'm glad the parents hung around to nest.. Thank you Craig!

Very pretty young-un Cheryl and a worthy alternate to hummers.
Love the little "goatee" under his chin shown so well in the 1st image. I like the sparkly background lighting in that one too.

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.
