Hummingbirds at last!

We've finally had some visitors! The flying kind, that is. I got my mom this hummingbird feeder for Mother's Day and put it out in June in the flowerbed near the petunias. It took a while for them to discover it, and now it is busy with activity. I've been trying to get a good picture of them while they feed, but they don't stay around for very long at one time, so it's been a challenge. The standing joke around here is that every time I run for my camera, the birds fly away 99% of the time. If I don't get the camera, they stay around for awhile. After much waiting, I managed to get a few pictures and this one turned out very well. Hope you enjoy it!
