Fueling Up
Knowing the hummingbirds usually leave about the first week of October, I decided to see if I could grab some shots this afternoon.
No sooner had I approached my "blind" than this female Ruby-throated Hummingbird flew up to the feeder.
Not sure if she saw me, but over the next thirty minutes or so, she saw and chased hummingbird after hummingbird away from HER feeder. She was staked out in the nearby camellia bush to keep a very close eye on all trespassers.
Taken through the backdoor window so not as clear as I'd like.
