Catching it standing on the camera is a good way of showing how truly small it is.

Nice capture! Thanks for sharing.

Great photograph. I am impressed that this bird landed on a hard surface. Typically they will not land on the ground as their tiny legs are too weak to allow them to walk. Thanks so much for posting.

I wonder how rare hummingbirds standing on Pentax dSLRs is, compared to Canikon? Most of the young, Asian hummingbirds, I'm led to believe are perching on mirrorless, full-frame Sonys these days.

Ricoh has been totally ignoring the wishes of the hummingbird market for some time now.

(Oh yeah - Nice capture!)

Not an everyday sight to see one on your Pentax. Great shot!

The K1 is so easy to use! Even birds can take a shot!

That bird is a real pro!
