Double Take
One of the compelling features of wildlife photography is that you never know when you might witness something amazing and whether or not you will be able to capture that amazing moment with a photograph. I know that my photographer friends can all identify with this scenario: You are in the middle of shooting when the action suddenly goes off-the-charts amazing and all you can do is just keep saying out loud "Wow!" "Wow!" "Wow!"(or something to that effect).
The other day I was shooting Ruby-throated Hummingbirds doing their run-of-the-mill routine: a quick fly-in, feed frantically for about 10 seconds, then quickly fly-off. It was during one of these sessions that I witnessed two siblings fly-in, play a little, feed a little and then fly off. The whole time I was shooting I was in amazement at the action and just kept saying "Wow"! I was lucky enough to capture a good number of frames of this encounter and will be posting them over the next several days.
