    Wow Barry, the Hummingbird and Cardinal are really great photos. The Cardinal looks like a water colour painting.

    My pleasure, I think that it is great that you take the time to share your hobby with others to enjoy.

    As for the hummers, every time I hang up a feeder the nectar evaporates within a week. Is your feeder in a shaded area?

      I have hummer feeders in a few spots in the garden...some in the sun...some in the shade. I change the sugar water every week so its not often they evaporate before I get to them.

    Isn't it wonderful seeing them coming to your yard. Thanks for sharing the pictures of your visitors.

    Sorry one more thing Barry, my wife and I went to see the Alan Bray museum last weekend and it appears to already be closed. Do you know if they will have it open again before the auction?
