Hummingbird At Scarlet Beebalm

July 14, 2025

Look closely at the upper right corner and you’ll see a Ruby-throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris) enjoying the nectar of a perfect flower for her, Scarlet Beebalm (Monarda didyma). Perfect because of its brilliant red color, funnel-shaped flowers, and abundant nectar production. Those Scarlet Beebalms, amid Orange Coneflowers (Rudbeckia fulgida).

      Thanks bunches Diane! Though winter is my favorite season, I sure do love summer because of its brilliant colors which I certainly don’t see in winter! And the hummingbirds really go for bright reds, don’t they?!!

      So very glad you read my posts! And hoping you are thoroughly enjoying your summer!
