Really nice capture. I much prefer shots of these little guys in purely natural settings as opposed to feeders. I'm certainly no plant guru, but it looks like a variety of honeysuckle.

I dont know the name of the plant chris, but i think this is a beautiful shot :t:
Do you know if she is Anna's or Ruby-throat?

Thanks for the great words on the picture. She is a Ruby-throat, the male was feeding also but he was very camera shy.

I found out the name of this plant today. It's called a Cigar Plant (Cupea ignea) I picked up 5 of them from our nursery to plant in our hummingbird garden.
