Ruby-throated hummingbird enjoying Salvia nectar
Jul 7, 2023 20:10:19 #
I got a ton of good shots at a friend's place, with multiple potted Salvia plants flowering on the deck. The hummer completely ignored the hummingbird feeder filled with sugar water. Must be a natural food lover. 
Though, it is oblivious to the fact that a spider is hanging on to its neck (pic #5)!

Excellent work, Ronnie! You got a nictacting eye in #2.
Thank you Mike for your feedback. I had noticed the blink in pic 2. But, I did not know the word (apparently rare) you used to describe it, so thanks for improving my vocabulary! 😀👍
=====
nic·tate
/ˈniktāt/
verb - RARE
blink.
"the lid of her left eye began to nictate"
