then a bath. These are few hummingbird shots taken in California prior to moving to Texas that I had forgotten about. They really liked my fountain on hot days.

Well caught and composed, tfs.

Very excellently made images!
You should move back to California so that it will start raining here again!

Terrific series of images. That is a great fountain for those kind of shots. Good work.

Excellent series. These characters are a lot of fun to observe. With this type of behavior, I wonder if that really is water. Could be, Vodka, Gin or even Bacardi. Thanks again.

Fun series, Todd. I wouldn't even imagined that hummingbirds would do such a thing.

Thanks Angky! I am not sure I would be of much help in the rain department since I think I brought drought to Texas.

Thanks Mike! The fountain provided me with many photo opportunities for birds, cats, raccoons, etc. over the years.

I really like the one where it's laying in the water. Never seen that behavior before. All are nice shots.

Obviously, you've never seen me on a Sunday morning after a real bender. A very familiar scene.

Thanks for the nice comment! They liked to take advantage of the fountain, particularly on hot days.
