That Hummingbird

Thanks to Amy's diligence in keeping the feeder filled with fresh sugarwater, we've had hummingbird action in the yard pretty much all year. In recent weeks I've been able to get pretty close to it, but so far it's been very difficult to get a good photo. I have a handful of OK pictures, but not any that are astounding.

Last weekend I sat down after chasing the little booger through the branches of the fig tree. I sat on a bench and started watching a jay that was in a nearby platform feeder. It didn't occur to me that I was sitting right by the hummingbird feeder, but the hummer came and buzzed me after about a minute, just to remind me. I'll post a couple of shots here.
