They are so pretty. Usually I don't get my camera on them fast enough!
Usually you hear them before you actually see them. Hummingbirds are another reason to love summer!

Do they go away then ? I didn't know that.

Yes, they migrate to warmer places at the end of September. I always feel sad to see them go, but in May they are back again.
