This plant finally lived up to its hype-"Hummingbird magnet!" More to follow.

This female was content to hang around for 392 shots! Don't know about her, but i was sure wore out! Initial cull narrowed it down to 179. I'm still having fun.

Hey, friend!

Great series, Rog.
The second is priceless. A pretty unique pose.

Thank you, dear friend. Afraid I’m kinda hit and miss on potn now but the day was such a blast, just had to puff my chest a bit. My apologies.
I do see you’re as active as ever, a good thing. I need to sit down and check out your thread.
Thank you again so much!

I need to correct myself-do believe this is a young male.

Day 2 and with the 7DII. Pretty much the same results and appears to be the same young male. Very appreciative of this guy as others do not seem to be interested. Blooms fading rapidly now so it'll be wait until next year.
I have dozens of shots similar to this one and ones above, so thankful for the opportunity.
