I'm thinking your photos of the hummers at rest are a real rarity. I'm very impressed that you got those. Really neat.

There's just something so adorable about the Tufted Titmouse.

The face, I think.

I set a 'trapline' of food and plants/flowers for the hummingbirds from front to back between nesting trees. I enjoy watching them and every now and then I get an OK photo.

I gotta run to Charlotte to pick up Mom, it's a bird, it's a plane, it's Super Mom.
I'm watching the progress of the plane on line.

You got superb photos of the hummers. I thought that was almost impossible (remembering my own attempts)
