Now the first thing I do after I wake is run to the window to watch them perform their daily ablutions. It's a good start to everyone's day.

How cute!! Love the picture of them playing by the water. I love to watch the aerial performances of these little birds.
ReplyDeleteOur property is like a truck stop for hummingbirds on their way north. They're b-a-a-a-a-ck....
ReplyDeleteThat is just so amazingly cool. . .
ReplyDeleteHow playful in that water! Our hummers arrive about 3/30, so I hope some cacti and other things start blooming for them like here in TX...
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! And such fabulous pictures. I always have a hard time getting them "on film." Guess I'll put up my feeder; ours usually show up later than yours.
ReplyDeleteIt really feels like spring to me when the Hummingbirds return. Love your photos...hope you get to see lots of hummers this year!
ReplyDeleteI love the pic with the hummingbirds at the water fountain. Great shot.
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful and tiny they are, I love the photo of them splashing in the fountain. :)
ReplyDeletexoxoxo ♡
It must be a delight to see them returning.
ReplyDeleteIs that splayed tail moved as if another wing. See the little guy on the stone.
The photos are lovely.
ReplyDeleteI have a special love for hummingbirds because of my Mom. She adores the little guys and every year, she fills a feeder for them and brings it to my house to hang outside.
I love you so!

Ah lah. I have got to go fix up my feeder and fill it up.
ReplyDeleteWe need to get a feeder this year. In prior years, they've been attracted to our Japanese plum, but it's gone now, having become too unwieldy and a danger to the house.
ReplyDeleteSigh.
Oh well, things change.
(BTW, I'm glad it's Spring somewhere. It's 35 degrees outside my window.)
Cheers.
So beautiful. One thing we do not have here....
