My summer entertainment. Many, many Ruby Throated Hummingbirds (Archilochus colubris). The clowns of summer. It would be extremely difficult to say how many Hummingbirds there are. They are too quick and fidgety. What you see here, an extremely brief moment in time, while they sit quietly. A blink of the eye and they are bouncing off each other again.

There are actually two of these feeders out there on the porch. Each one holds 1/2 gallon of syrup. And over the course of one day, one of these 1/2 gallon containers is emptied. Thirsty little critters.
