Humming Birds

We have several types of hummingbirds visiting our feeder. The first is a picture I took of the hummingbird peeking out from behind the feeder. The rest are what my 11 year old daughter took. I'm no slouch when it comes to photography....
(But Dang! She is GOOD!)







Most of our hummingbirds are the Rufous species.

I love the brillant metallic rust color of the males.





This guy is soo cool! I haven't looked up exactly which kind so I've nicknamed it the Irish Tiger Hummingbird. (Due to the green back and stripes on the cheek and throat.)







Caught in mid flap.







This has got to me my favorite.


Though she took some more tonight that are just as good as these if not better.
