And a beautiful video it most certainly is! Thank you Janice! I couldn't take my eyes off it & watched it over & over again.

I'm surprised they don't eat those bees. That would fill their little bellies in one fell swoop.

Loved the hummer close ups. The one almost got attacked by the spider. Did anyone else notice the baby bat holding on? Great link!

Here is another story and video you might enjoy. Fires were all over Texas during the drought this year, destroying many wildflowers and taking it's toll on gardens used by the hummers during migration.

Sheila I liked your video too. I had a similar thing happen here after hurricane Ivan a few years ago. It destroyed the flowers for miles and the hummers were all over my feeders too.
