Seems they go from flower to flower and quickly they leave.
Getting a few pictures can be difficult at times
Thanks again for looking
It has been an off year here for hummingbirds. Not sure why. Maybe too many feeders so they have lots of restaraunts to choose from. Usually 6 or 7 at a time. Mainly a bunch of singles this year.

What kind do you get there? We get the ruby throated here. I love watching them. We usually get a lot when they head back south but usually only a few in the summer.

For the longest time this year they were constantly going to the walkers low catmint and since those flowers are fading we see them more often on the porch flowers

We see the ruby here often and sometimes one that has a lot of green
Take care
 

Takes a fast shutter to catch a hummingbird...:occasion14:

We feed hummingbirds here year around, as one species chooses
to winter here. Makes it tough in the winter to keep the feeder from
freezing up.

My neighbor has a Bottle Brush Fire plant I believe comes from New Zealand in his backyard....you can hardly keep the hummbirds away from it, they really like it!
Thanks I’ll check on them sounds good

We enjoy them …They arrived late it seems this year
It must be so nice to have them all year

I got my Bottle Brush plant from Lowes about five years ago but it blooms out before the hummers get here. They do love Salvia.
Here is a picture I was lucky enough to take back when digital cameras first came out. It is a female Ruby Throat.
