Talking

'Bubble Bath' for the hummingbirds


While visiting my sister in No. CA last Sept., ( I'm a little slow in getting my pictures organized, LOL!!)
I was able to spend some time watching the hummingbirds enjoy the top of her lovely fountain.

The Fountain


Those water bubbles really tickle my tummy


Water droplet on my beak


Air drying my wings


At times, there were several hummingbirds hovering close to the fountain awaiting their turn to enjoy the 'bubbles'.

A lot of action around that fountain. I would sit in front of it all day if I could waiting to see what happens next.

Amazing photos!! I've never seen a hummingbird in person - they are fascinating though the way they hover. Bathing in a fountain - now THAT's luxury
