Today's hummingbird:
I've been trying to get video with my wildlife camera of the hummingbird antics around the feeder with mixed results, but here is a short clip of one interaction. Anna's hummers, I believe #birds #hummingbird

Right before a big storm rolled in, this #hummingbird stopped at my moms feeder for a drink!

Is it hard trying to look tough when your buns are so fluffy? 🤔😆

I put up a tiny hummingbird feeder Saturday. I figured since I got thumped in the back of the head late last week, that was a hint from the bird to get with the program.
I expect it will be heading south very soon, but it visited today! And the mix in there is pure sugar water, no dye etc. I replaced the mix with fresh, just now.

I’ll write about this more soon but we have set up a very simple and cheap hummingbird cam in my office window and it’s amazing.

These tiny creatures are losing their battle to survive.
The Rufous hummingbird lost two-thirds of its population since 1970, according to the 2022 State of the Birds report.
These tiny creatures are one of 70 bird species on the “Tipping Point” list that will lose another fifty percent of their populations in the same time frame if conservation doesn’t improve.

The hummingbirds haven't left Maine yet. This afternoon I got smacked on the back of the head by a hummingbird. On purpose too. #birds #birding #hummingbird
So far, this is the only hummingbird I've managed to catch in flight. This Rufous Hummingbird (Selasphorus rufus) was just leaving some Blackberry flowers it was scrutinizing when I made this photo.

As some of you know, today is National Hummingbird Day, conveniently scheduled for my birthday this year. So here is another hummingbird, a male Green-crowned Brilliant, from the hummingbird hotspot of the western Andes of Ecuador.

Every day I say I’m not going to get sucked in by the hummingbirds and every day I fail. My storage is clogged with hummingbird photos but they are just too beautiful not to photograph 😆
