Proof that hummingbirds do sometimes sit for a couple of seconds and have something to eat! This little guy had fought off another hummingbird before settling down for a drink. I didn't notice the sparrow in the front right until I uploaded the pic to the computer.

two for the price one
i love when they decide to rest en masse and get 4 or 5 sitting around the feeder at once (rare!)
I do love watching these tiny little creatures.
It's found the sweet spot!
Humming birds are fascinating to watch. While they need the sugar for energy, they also must eat insects for protein to balance their diet. They are quite territorial with other humming birds.
Lovely scene, Pat !
It won't be long before the hummers are heading south.
What a nice capture!
Squatters' rights. :-)
Hello, great capture of the hummer sitting still. They are quick movers. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend!
It is a rare sight to see one not in flight.
You got photo-bombed by a sparrow! I love this shot with so much suspense
You're right Pay, I don't think I've ever seen a hummingbird without its little wings going like the clappers 😊 nice one!
That would be Pat 😊😊
