This is our dominate male Ruby-throated Hummingbird. He was here last year too. Ed, I and the camera had a magic moment the other day. We were all on the same page and I got some really good pics of our little spunky hummer!

I even got a couple of pretty nice ones(this time through the back window) of another hummer. I have attached a branch on the shepard hook that the feeder is on, making them a "tree" to perch on and they love it!

What wonderful pictures.
I can see in the pictures how their feet are so tiny they can't get a good grip on the shepard's hook. I'm going to follow your idea and attach a smaller diameter branch to my shepard's hook.
