Monarch butterfly sipping nectar from a garden Zinnia.

 

Common and abundant.

Localized and common.

Miss Phoebe, one of our resident female Anna's Hummingbird, sipping nectar. This time she chose our Amistad Salvia for her after dinner snack!!

'Beija Flor' or humming bird sipping from the flowers at Costa do Sauipe, Bahia, North East Brazil.

Female sipping some nectar on a sunny day.

 

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

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.

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!

Common start/end of season migrant and warm weather resident.

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 am still seeing good numbers of Skippers around. Not really surprising with temperatures around 30°C (86°F) for most of the Easter Weekend.
