Day 13.129: Mealtime hummingbird

It didn't take long after we put the hummingbird feeder up before I disturbed a female ruby-throated hummingbird there as I went to open the door onto the deck. It was several more days before I attempted to get a photograph and even more before I managed to get one - a partial view of a female hiding behind the window furniture.

Then, a couple of days ago as we were eating, a male came and spent a long time feeding - moving from side to side around the feeder then sitting for a while, then moving again. Of course I had no means of getting a photograph within my reach.

Then today - as we were eating dinner - he came again and I was ready!
