Yes, this morning, I actually got a picture of one of our resident hummingbirds!!!

The main male and female were fighting over the feeder.

I kept seeing them blur by the windows, and when I paid closer attention, I saw the male sitting on a tree branch watching while the female came to the feeder, hovered around a bit and then started to sip. Then, the male flew down very close and fast, chasing the female off.

They did this over and over, the chase swirling through the sky into the neighbor’s backyard and back.

I went over to the window and stood, phone in hand with the camera app open, and when the female came to hover, I snapped as fast as I could.

I got two pretty good pictures, but they’re not nearly as clear and focused as I would like…

Look at her wings, though! They’re flapping so fast, they look almost see-through, strikingly translucent.

Awesome!!
