End Of August Already Says ----- Ruby-Throat (22)

Hi PhotoFriends,

Can you all believe September is almost upon us

I am very happy to say that my Ruby-Throats are still here and they are still posing for me throughout each day. I think I have to say it’s almost been two full months photographing them and I think I am ready to move on to Songbirds and Bald Eagles. My 2014 Hummingbird folder is overflowing and now I have a vault with unprocessed hummingbird photos too. Never understood vaults since this hummer season!
I have so many keepers that it has gotten so hard to decide which ones to share with you all. Decisions, decisions!

Here is a new Ruby-Throated Story:

It’s me Ruby again!

Mrs. Gardner has picked flowers from earlier days that she hasn’t shared with you all. So I thought I would do the honors of entertaining you all with another lovely flower garden tour!

Truly beautiful set BeeBalm... the Stargazer Lilies and the White Summer Phlox are gorgeous images expertly processed.
Favorite Hummer pics are 1 and 22... but the whole set was delightful.

The Stargazer Lilies and the White Summer Phlox are standing out for me, BB, but I really enjoyed your little, sweet Ruby-Throated taking me around your beautiful garden
Great job on taking and presenting these, BB.

These are very nice as usual, BB. I can't get my mind around this many pics, ADHD I suspect. I kept going back to the 2nd. Well done.
