I plant lost of hummingbird friendly plants in my pollinator garden, lots of them around the deck and waterfall so there always around when I am sitting outside, I have feeders but I take them down for the summer since there are plenty of flowers for them.

I like to get pictures of them at the flowers, I don't worry about freezing the wings.

Thanks! Glad you liked them.
Amazing! I tried to 'fake' the plant scene this summer by attaching snipped blossoms to the hummingbird feeder, but it never quite worked out. :lol:
I haven't had much luck with that either, I find having plants near where I am taking pictures of other birds works best then when a hummingbird comes by I will get pictures of them also.

Thanks!
