Lots of little females have been visiting the feeders, I don't know if it's this years offspring or just foraging females moving through the area

In the gathering dusk, they flash like little green jewels as they come to the feeder. Such beauty in such a small package.

Posing for the picture. It's hot, so hot even the birds are starting to look stressed by the heat.

This is for the folks here in Muskogee, Oklahoma where I'm presently anchored down.  So to speak.  Nonetheless, this is just what we all need, a little cool weather to break through.  Maybe not this cold.  Look closely at that thermometer at the start of the video.  Enjoy

Sometimes they come in so fast and quick to feed I don't even see them. They land behind the bottle in the feeder and I can't see them.
