The other morning, I noticed that the Rose of Sharon is in full bloom. Several branches cascade over the top of the fence. The light was shining through the white blossoms, illuminating them so I got my Nikon Z8 and 105 macro and went back out. Then I heard one of the hummers making his presence known. He perched atop a bare twig at the top of the shrub and watched me as I took photographs of this blossom. When I turned my lens on him, he flew off. It’s nice to know that so many of the flowers in my garden are appreciated by the hummers.
