I agree that number 4 is really a nice shot.
I think I should probably get one of those hummingbird feeders.
Your images of those birds are always interesting.

Thank you very much. I like those images also. I actually thought number one was best due to the flared tail feathers. I appreciate your comments.

Thank you Angky. You should get a feeder. I enjoy watching hummingbirds zooming around the yard competing for dominance at the feeder. This is a female. I haven't had much luck getting good shots of the male. I appreciate your feedback.

This is a very nice series of hummingbird captures Mike. The bird's body and head are nice and sharp, and the wings show beautiful motion. Well done!

Thank you, Todd. I appreciate your comments. The motion blur in the wings is nice.
