Hummingbirds Harangue, Hold Forth, Hover, Hang Out and Heartily Partake

Here is some of the action just outside our living room window. These bold little guys just don't seem to mind your being nearby, even if you stand within a foot or so of their feeder. And if you are refilling the feeder, expect to have them buzzing all about your head, hands, and generally urging you to hurry up already. This is actually a small gathering. Each evening, just as it is beginning to turn dark, there are approximately two dozen there at a time, sometimes taking turns patiently and sometimes not. This is quite a sight!
