Wildsumaco’s Hummingbird Feeders

Rain or shine (and you’ll get plenty of both) Wildsumaco’s hummingbird feeders are extremely busy all day with some amazingly brilliant hummingbirds darting around daring you to take a photo while they are in motion.

My eBird list of hummingbirds

I never would have been able to identify all these but after sitting down with our guide, we scored 15 species of hummingbirds!  I didn’t get photos of them all as I was confused about which ones I already photographed but I tried!

A group of Singaporean birders showed up with some very impressive camera gear!  It was hilarious when we were all in a row focussed on the poor little hummingbirds who must have thought they were in a war zone, that’s what it sounded like with all those bursts!DSCN2156 DSCN2154 DSCN2158

It’s cool to see different species sharing the feeders!DSCN2160
