Silver, I'm not sure precisely where you live, but if it's east of the Mississippi River, you'll be seeing Ruby-throated hummingbirds, mostly. If you live in the south, there will also be Black-throated and some hybrids. The females of each species are hard to distinguish from the other. In the western US, there's much much more variation. With hummingbirds, geography is everything. You won't see the Xantus in the US without a lot of luck, as they stay further south with only a few strays sometimes coming into southern Texas, Arizona and New Mexico. If you want to attract hummingbirds to your property, the best thing to do is plant flowers that attract them, if you can. Otherwise a feeder filled with sugar water is next best.
Ice, I might. Juggling school and a job the last couple years has been a lot of time and drawing is generally what I sacrificed. Maybe come next summer...though it will probably be more abstract stuff I did most recently. That said, 'fraid I can't offer many tips on drawing wings or legs, other than for every species, it's slightly different. Anymore when I'm out birdwatching, I go by shape more than color.
