Hum bug!

Friends of ours gave us a hummingbird feeder and it works like a charm. Wendy boiled up some sugar water for the hummingbirds and it appears to be a hit . They're attracted to it like Nielsens to tequila, or Vartys to the cookie tin.

Opportunities to photograph the hummers are fleeting, but if you're patient then the opportunity arises...for about two seconds.
