Saturday Critters ~ 6 ~


   My best friend from Summer...
 
She came every day, all summer long.
I came to study her markings and coloring and learned
it was the same Female Ruby-Throated Hummingbird that visited
every day.

I am super excited to be joining in with Eileen over at
for Saturday Critters.

Stop by and consider joining in, any critter will do!!

    Awesome photos, Debbie! Instead of showing spider photos like some people we know, these are the kind of summer shots I like! :-)

    isn't it pure joy when a critter visits everyday for a visit. I wonder if she will bring her babies to visit you when she has any.

    What a beauty, Debbie!
    I am never really successful when it comes to photographing these little ones, but this year, we had so few, that I had very little chance. Amazing lack of both them and bees, this past summer.

    Have a wonderful weekend!

    I miss the Hummingbirds. One of my most exciting moments in Spring is when I spot the first return of the Ruby Throated , they arrive back here right around April 22 each year.
    Thanks so much for this share Debbie. great captures !

    We have those guys everyday here in Yuma!!!.. How can you tell if it is the same one?... I know we have at least three...but they seem to change colours... I will have to look more careful and see if I can tell them apart.... and I sure don't have a good camera like you!! Great pictures!!

    She's beautiful. I'd love to get a photo of one. I'm thinking of getting a feeder this year and hanging it outside my craft room window.
