    Hi Thomas Thanks for your positive comments. Can’t wait for the hummers to return in the spring so I can, hopefully, get better shots of these jewels.

    Hi Beve Not so busy now as all but the Anna’s Hummers have departed for the winter. Still about 2 dozen resident species to keep me busy, plus lots of wintering Yellow-rumped Warblers. Always a hope that something unusual will decide to grace us with its presence during the winter.
