I have known for a while that hummingbirds are attracted to trumpet vines, so I keep my eyes open whenever I pass a stand of them near the observation tower at Huntley Meadows Park. Yesterday morning I finally lucked out and spotted a female Ruby-throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris) in the midst of the trumpet vines (Campsis radicans) and managed to capture these images, including one in which the hummingbird was resting for a few seconds on a branch before resuming her energetic activity.

The pictures are great, Mike. The bottom one is amazing.
Thanks, Dan. It’s a little easier to photograph a hummingbird and frame the shot when it cooperates by sitting still for a moment. 🙂
