Another month or so and these little guys will be heading South.

I'm enjoying them in the meantime.--charliezap.

Very cool... interesting feeder.

I got the feeder at Lowe's for 4 bucks. It's made well and it's glass.-charliezap

Love the iridescence of their feathers

Shots 3 and 4 really let me see something unique about that bird.
Not sure what it is--something about the wings and feet making a real bird almost mythical.
Or an almost mythical bird real???

I'm trying to figure out how you train these guys! Great shots, Capn.

Thanks guys. The flash brings out the colors of the hummingbirds. They are not as vibrant without some lighting.--charliezap.

A very nice, well done and fun series.

Thanks for mentioning the flash. The flash really brought out the red throat and the iridescent greens on its back. I have used flash before and it freezes motion well. Good work.
