You gotta get them used to your presence! Yesterday I was standing about a foot from the feeder to get a good angle on a perched bird and before I could get a shot he (a young male!) came over for a long drink. Of course he went to an opposite flower but at least he tolerated me! I think things are winding down but I've still two or three young hummers around, and yesterday one of them did the 'flying back and forth thing' (courtship dance?) after chasing another bird into the trees - boy, they sure start young!
Nice shot but I don't think she has an evil feather on her body!
Btw, where's the jewelweed you're referring to?
