Hummingbird?

Not sure what kind of Hummingbird this is. :rofl


I was sitting down drinking my coffee this morning and I saw this Lessser Goldfinch trying to use my hummingbird feeder. Lucky for my, my camera was near, although I had it on ISO 1600 because I had shot some stuff last evening. I also shot this through the sliding glass window. I didn't want to risk opening the window.

I have never seen a goldfinch, or any finch for that matter, go for a hummingbird feeder. Interesting.

I've seen a few squirrels go for hummer feeders, but this one's new to me too. Thanks for sharing! BTW, those are nice pics considering the window and your ISO.

Just looked at your web site. I love your Blurb book--wish I could order one. And I like your photos + Bible verses--that's something we have in common: http://redleash.smugmug.com/gallery/4939987_HHRQ3.

So I've been told. Never saw a Orange-crowned Warbler here, so I'll have to look around for him now!

Thanks for looking...and the ID.
