Male and Female Ruby-throated Hummingbirds ... 200+ shots and an hour and a half of standing very still to get only one of each that I like ... worth every minute!

they are so cute! thank you for all the hard work 
did you ever try to lure them close with a feeder? we don't have them where i live, so i'm wondering whether that's an easy task or not.

I have in the past. It does seem to be pretty easy to lure them here, as long as you get feeders out early ... around March when they first start showing up. If I put feeders out now, I probably wouldn’t attract any. I’ve heard it also helps to have plenty of flowers around the feeders as well.
@WombatLima, aw, i'd love to have their company!
gorgeous! they are amazing little things
