    This was the feeder the hummers liked the best. When it would get empty, several of the hummers would hover at the sliding glass doors to let us know. There are 16 Hummers in this pic.

    What a wonderful photograph. I don't think I've ever seen so many hummingbirds in one piccie before.

    What a lot of hummingbirds at one feeder. I have only seen one passing thru in the 21 years we have lived here.

    Cat, my friend has a feeder like that and they just swarm it. We counted 18 one night. There is one that runs the others off.It is so much fun to watch the little creatures. Thanks for sharing your photo.

    Oh wow, what a great shot!
    I am lucky to see 2 Hummingbirds in my yard at once!

    What a great picture.

    I only saw them once like that, at my sisters and she had to refill the feeders 4 or 5 times a day. They would come out of the woods and the noise was deafening. It was an awesome sight.
