Thanks for looking and commenting,Rhett. It was kittish when I was photographing him. A little bit earlier I was out there to refresh the nectar and it hung around me with in a foot and fed 2 or 3 times. Even buzzed around my head some.

Of course ... he wanted you to get the job done and put the feeder back into service.

I use home made sugar water. I proportion it 4 to 1. Example: 2 ounces of sugar to 8 ounces of water.
