From last February.


One of the hummingbirds that overwinters here, sizing up a sugar syrup snow cone.









Guess he didn't want it. Instead he played peek a boo.

I've never had much luck with BIF; a few have been OK, but at a very low keeper rate!
These shots were a bit lucky; see bird and shoot with whatever settings were already set - f8, 1/250, ISO100 and wind the 18-135 out to the maximum.











...oh yes, then crop, crop, crop!!
