Sipping nectar from my petunias. I have about 5 baskets of petunias hanging where my hummingbird feeders are. That way I can get the occasional hummer that is drinking nectar from the flowers rather than the feeders. I particularly liked this shot.

 

These birds are probably one of the biggest challenges to photograph. Their speed is so incredible, their movements so erratic, they of course very rarely stay in one spot for long and they are so tiny.

 

I've said it before and I'll say it again, large subjects are simple to photograph in action, but these guys make one take action photography to a whole new level

Don't bite off more than you can chew when you can sip the nectar

They are thinning out a bit, still not the number of Butterflies we are used to have,

A Ruby-throated Hummingbird takes a tiny sip from a flower.

This one was enjoying the Dandelion pollen so much it didn't notice me come in close to get the image.

Happy Wing Wednesday!

Green Grass Dart (Skipper) (Ocybadistes walkeri)

 

I don't often see the Skippers in the front garden. This one was sipping nectar from an African Daisy today.

You can see just how long its tongue is here.

 

Happy Wing Wednesday!

Finally I got some photos from a great poser,

I have no idea why they like this spot by the chimney and the AC

Unit right under the bush, very close to the kitchen window.

Common Grass Blue (Zizina labradus)

 

Seen in the garden today, as are all today's images, but this time I had the macro lens on.

It was my first trip out with the camera for a while this afternoon and how lovely to see this elegant painted lady in the beautiful Sussex Prairie Gardens - not a butterfly I've seen often around here. I was pleased with the detail on the head in this one, so worth zooming in!

A rufous hummingbird blissfully sips nectar from a purple flower (I'm terrible with plant names. I think it's a salvia of some sort). This is either a female or immature male.

 

Thanks so much to everyone who takes the time to view, like or comment on my photos!

I was inspired by other images that I've seen here on Flickr. And decided to take out one of my teacups from my cabinet, pick some flowers from a hanging basket and shoot! I used a piece of glitter construction paper for the background and a couple of my small table top LED lights. (They get extremely HOT) I know it's very girly but I just wanted to use some of my props. Hoping to get back out side soon!

 

Thank you everyone!
