I live in a nice suburb of St Louis, and our park has a fishing lake. So, it attracts lots of wildlife. And I feed everything on my porch, too. I just go sit out these with my camera and wait, and soon something happens by. The hummers have no fear. Sometimes I will let Maxie sit with me, and they don't even worry about him, altho they will come and hover a foot or so in front of us, telling us this is THEIR porch.
