#hummingbird

I think my home has become #hummingbird central. I have five 8-oz hummingbird feeders and I keep them full all the time in the summer. I'm currently going through 2 quarts of sugar water a week. Birds are buzzing around from first light until last night. Sadly, I'm also #yellowjacket and #hornet central. I just set up another three wasp traps and all three of them were catching #wasps within 20 minutes. I also just sprayed a few hornet nests. So I'll stay inside for a while.😬

It has been #hummingbird central over here

Like, she's just chilling in the tree above my patio umbrella after coming in and out of the garden to feed several times #hummingbird

I present to you, a female hummingbird enjoying some nectar from the massive cardinal flowers in our flowerbed! It's hard to tell, but this hummingbird was maybe five feet from me, which is the closest I've ever come to a hummingbird (unless I'm filling their feeder, then they dive-bomb me 😅). And the cardinal flowers... I'm not kidding when I say they're massive. Some of them are at least four feet tall, which is outrageous. #Nature #Birds #Hummingbird #Wildflowers #Bloomscrolling

the wily hunter pounces on the unsuspecting prey!!! (this buff-tailed coronet may have an overactive fantasy life, i'm not sure the pink flower required a sneak attack 🤣 ) #Bird #Birding #Hummingbird #BirdsOfMastodon #BIrdPhotography #Photograph #Neotropics #Nature

I've published some patterns for making your own tiny, provenance and governance controlled #ubi #universalbaseimages based containers for in-house #zerocve container images ; whilst retaining your full support and lifecycle guarantees from #redhat here : https://codeberg.org/aenertia/rhhi-comparison the tl;dr is for a lot of industry the dream of being able to consume and use #fedora #hummingbird / red-hat hardened images is just that. ubi-micro based pipelines give you pretty much all the upsides and few of the downsides of ingesting raw upstream bleeding edge, whilst still giving you the standard support case/2 am phone path. And for established enterprises is probably the right patern to counter all this LLM weaponization chatter.

"while it's true i don't like u, don't feel special, i don't like ANYONE" -- song of the brown violetear I must have deleted THOUSANDS of photos i sprayed & prayed to get to this shot, but it's all worth it in the end... i was chasing this image both in Colombia & Ecuador... not a rare species, just hard to get the light just right to show the flash & flare #Fotomontag #PhotoMonday #Photography #Bird #Hummingbird #Challenge #BirdPhotography #BirdsOfMastodon

technically it counts as bird in flight photography but hummingbirds are really bird in hover photography so they are the perfect bird family for beginners to bird photography #Fotomontag #PhotoMonday #Bird #Hummingbird #BirdInFlightPhotography #BirdInFlight #BirdsOfMastodon

Chasing hummingbirds at the UC Santa Cruz arboretum this morning. Quite a few hummingbirds flitting around and lots if small lizards and bees buzzing around. #hummingbird #nature #naturephotography #lumix #lumixdcg9m2 #birdphotography #micro43

Today's candidate for a throwback is a hummingbird photo I took 21 years ago (jeesh) at mom's cabin. #birds #hummingbird #ThrowbackThursday
