An Anna’s Humming Bird Feeding on Flowers
While photographing hummingbirds and songbirds at a friend’s house here in Sequim, I was told that planting Catmint is one of the best ways to attract these beauties. So if you hope to bring them to your backyard, consider adding this plant to your landscape.
And although I recently added Catmint, and planted any number of other flowering plants in an effort to increase my chances of attracting them, I find they’re more interested in my feeders than anything else.
So given that, I bring in my feeders when the plants are in bloom. That forces the hummers to look elsewhere and it helps increase the likelihood of me getting to photograph them on something other than a feeder.
And if you have a good way to attract them and you’re willing to share, please let us all know by making a comment.
So sweet! He’s looking right at you.
Yes, as if to say, “this is all mine, lady, not yours!” 😉
