What a treat to be able to see and photograph these little beauties.
They are still around in the south. We had an active summer but it seems to be winding down. The food is out and will be ready for the next few months.
Perfect plan the heat was brutal up here all summer in NH so they are loving the cool off here. Many neighbors have stopped feeding them if they don’t see them for a few hours they assume they are gone. Mine visitor fly in every few minuets and stay until full. I am getting all the females looking for food others aren’t providing.
Nice video showing this eager sipper. Our males have already departed and perhaps the females as well, leaving a few juveniles racing around the garden. Likewise, I’ll miss these sweeties once they depart.
Now that you mentioned that they still look too skinny. I remember seeing one came to feed on my feeder and it looked big. I thought I saw one fat one flying that was much easier to detect and follow with my eyes.
Me too, I will miss them. Oh, such a nice clear shots of them!
Such pretty creatures. Amazing how these tiny bodies manage that long journey twice a year. Same with our house martins, which have left already. Sometimes they turn up in spring really small and I know they had a rough trip, but they survive year after year. 😃

I could capture them all day long as they buzz me and Brady as I work in the yard. They are the plain janes but gorgeous to me <3

Well all of our up north still have to make our way through so I am hoping gardens will keep them full.

They are inches from me but I shake too much I guess :)

Amazing video. I’m always in awe of their ability to hover like that.
They are quite the flyers :)
