Winged Enemies

The hot late summer has limited the flowers, so the sugar sweet feeder solution, 1 cup sugar to 4 cups water is the place to be for nectar noshing. The hummers have to be wary of the buzzers when approaching the feeders, even with bee guards, they are not safe from stingers.

Here's an adult male with his end of summer, slightly tattered but flashy finery.

For the Record, 
This day came in warm and breezy, but heat and humidity are on the way. We have a drive planned to a favorite lobster place.

All hands mourning a great statesman, Senator John McCain.
