Yes, I am behind on my posting. Sorry to make so many posts in one day. Here are a few snapshots of some of our favorite backyard visitors. Clicking to enlarge the pictures will aid in seeing the hummers better.
We have a dominant female ruby-throated hummer that visits and runs off the others that drop by for a drink. She isn't afraid of us either. She likes to come in for a closer look when we are outside. I never knew until she hovered in front of my face the other day, but the females have teeny tiny ruby dots on their necks.
Anyway, one of the females has a long neck and a flat head. I call her Frankie because her flat head reminds me of Frankenstein. The dominant female looks normal so I call her Norma. I just call the male(s) Jack (Jack Ruby). If there are more than one male, I am not able to distinguish.
Have a nice day!
