Dr. Joe's Photos

Hummingbirds are my photo "specialty". For most of the year here in Louisiana we have essentially only the Ruby-throated hummingbird which breeds here. In the winter, however, we have a large number of "western" hummingbirds which winter here. In fact, there have been a total of 13 species of hummingbirds recorded in this state. So far I have photographed 10 species of hummingbirds. I have created separate index pages for each species of hummingbird. Click on a picture to link to a particular species, or click on the first and you can page through all the photographs. I am by no means a hummingbird plant expert, but I have made an attempt to include the names of the plants at which the birds are feeding. If you would like a copy of my yard's hummingbird plant list with comments, you can download the Word file here.There are also links to pages of other non-hummingbird bird photographs, plantation homes and Christmas bonfires.  Thank you for visiting, and I hope you come back often.
