    Finally!!! Looks to be a female Ruby throated hummingbird. You can tell because the males have the red throat and the female doesn't.. Some pix are a lil blurry tho cause the stupid screen then I tuned off the flower setting and used regular auto focus on the last 2 pix. looks way better and more detail!. Will get more pix now that I know this! they come every 15 mins or so!! Hey Steve let me know if you get any at your house!

    more I look these might be 2 different birds? they were there 10 mins or so apart I just assumed at 1st it was the same one. the top 1 looks way more iridescent on the head in my opinion now that I look? what you guys think?

    took a few pix yesterday after dinner. they come and go every 5-10 mins so its not to hard to get a pic. this is on of the females. I will try and get a pic of the male. he has a red throat instead of a white throat and hes a lil darker too.
