Hummingbirds by pond (w/pictures) Please enjoy.
Comments (17)Sorry about that. My hosting site was compromised years ago, and they somehow slipped in some re-linking java script into the index files. I thought I had them all fixed, but I must have missed that one. Like I said those were old pictures I had not looked at in a while. Thanks for notifying me, I have just deleted the offending script so it is clean now. Again, sorry. If it's any consolation the offending script simply tries to open up another website without your consent much like html pop ups....See MoreLocal wildlife pictures (a lot of pictures)
Comments (15)Having grown up with paper wasps, I see them somewhat differently. While they leave me alone in the garden, if their nest gets bumped (like in a canoe), they will defend it vigorously, and their stings are really painful. I don't think of them as non-aggressive, but rather as being very aggressive if you give them cause, and willing to leave you alone if you don't. Now mud daubers or dirt daubers have always seemed to me to be much more passive. I've been stung many times over the years by paper wasps, mostly as a child, but never by a mud dauber, even when I was knocking down their nests from doorways, etc. But worst of all are hornets. Oh, my. You do NOT want to bump into a hornet's nest (the ones that look like big paper footballs). Hornets and yellow jackets seem to me to be far more aggressive than the other wasps I'm familiar with. Eeeek. Right after we moved into this house, we had yellow jackets suddenly appearing all over the INSIDE of our windows. We were told they probably had a nest inside the walls and that it could be huge. But they started dying on their own shortly thereafter, and never came back. I was sweeping up piles of yellow jacket bodies for weeks. We were lucky that they expired on their own, I reckon. Might have been a very different story if they had hung around long. Marcia...See MoreLots of Hummingbirds

Comments (2)Glenda - you may need to wear goggles to protect your eyes if you go out on the porch. lol Good photos - very clear. I haven't seen more than two hummingbirds at a time here but my coral honeysuckle and Dropmore Scarlet are blooming so they may be visiting those as much as my feeders. I hope I have more than what I'm seeing. Wish the coral honeysuckle was closer to my window so I could watch it easily....See More- 12 years ago
