My hummers are back
Lens: Tamron 300 and 1.4 TC Camera: K-3 Photo Location: My back yard 
Posted By: normhead, 05-28-2017, 09:15 AM

It's a nice day to shoot, the bugs aren't completely terrible yet. The next week is supposed to rain and be overcast. This is the right time of year for sun angle on our porch feeders. Everything was a go.

K-3 and tamron 300 2.8 with HD DA 1.4 TC.
Audiobomber's tracking settings.

This time of year, flowers are sparse, they just like a meal.

I'm curious what Audiobomber's tracking settings are? Nice captures Norm.

I missed them this year but hope to capture them when they head south in the fall.
