Thanks Penny and Dianne - it is not easy to catch four on a feeder.

No it isn't easy. Two is the best I have ever done.

Well, I usually just put out the Walmart feeders so I will only have one at a time. I did just order some Opus type feeders due to my bee problem, but I would be happy with one hummer. Nice job, Russ.

Russ - I was struck by how the front two hummers seemed to keep their eyes on one another as they took a sip! Very nice capture.

"it is not easy to catch four on a feeder" -- exactly what I was going to say, Russ! The only time I've seen it in my yard has been when it was pouring down rain. Cool gif! [linked image]

Thanks for the comments.
Carol - here is why they were looking at each other. The center one had just landed on the feeder.

I like the one that doesn't pay a bit of attention to the other three! She just keeps on drinking - my kinda gal! [linked image]
