<p>Good day everyone ! The number of hummingbirds in my garden is less than past years. Do however have a few female Ruby Throats and one male . I planted some Mexican Sunflowers in hopes that they would like them. One of the females finally took an interest the other day.</p> <div></div>

<p>Laura, thanks again for getting and keeping this going. Always love your informative narrative as well.<br> My shot is of a bronzed cowbird doing his display. Reminds me of a vampire or Darth Vader .</p> <div></div>
