Really nice. Kinda looks like a potential problem for Hummers with that line hanging on the end.

Very nice shots Randall. The little guy was at least giving it a try. I like #6 best.

Great series of shots. Not happy with some schmuck leaving his trash in the tree though.

Nice sharp closeups, looks like the hummer was about to land on your lens. The fishing line worries me though. It would be very easy for a hummer to get tangled up in that.
