Female Ruby-throated Hummingbird doing it's thing on a Black & Blue Salvia in my backyard. Just wish a male would go on there like some people I know!
This guy has hardly left this perch all summer. He sits here for hours on end, flies a few inches to the feeder and back to his perch. He chases away the other hummers that come to the feeder. I'm entertained for hours on end. It's the simply things in life.
I was pleased with the capture of the bird itself - would have loved the flower in focus but was not quite in focal plane.
Shot at 1/1000 of a second it allows for some blur on wings - at 1/1600th would freeze completely.
(I believe this is a Female Ruby Throated)
Hum in Istria Croatia, claims to be the smallest town in the world.
while I suspect that there are many towns of comparable size, there is no doubting its beauty.
Created using my Topaz Impression and Topaz Texture Effects presets.
Thank you for any comments
Was happy to get some photos of this Hummingbird with it's eyes closed.. If only for a split second..

Hello Everyone!
This was taken with my 100mm macro lens because I was shooting flowers. Suddenly this hummer showed up, so I then spent the next few moments in hot pursuit!
Thanks a million for taking the time to view this image and for leaving me a comment. I do love hearing from you!
Have a wonderful day and weekend!

Have a great day of thank you all for your visits comments and faves much appreciated!
Nothing special about this hummer, just one of several who tries to commandeer all 3 feeders in my back yard. But it is kinda cool how you can see its eye through the wing.

A large stand of Bougainvillea (the size of a 5-car garage) was peppered with buzzing hummingbirds. They zipped from stem to stem, never landing anywhere in the open.
This juvenile male Ruby-throated Hummingbird was an exception. He perched with his tiny legs and tiny feet on this twig for long enough to take several pictures...very cooperatively :-)) He is just beginning to develop the ruby throat that should be completed by August of the year.
Yesterday was my first attempt at photographing hummingbirds. I have a lot of admiration for photographers that get those great images, like my friend Sue Gary (SusanGary*GloriousNature*) who takes phenomenal shots. These little birds are so, so fast! I don't know what kind of hummer this is. Maybe someone can ID it for me. I live in the western mountains of North Carolina.
When I first starting to photograph this little guy, he'd fly away as soon as he heard my camera "click". But as the minutes passed, he got braver and braver. Finally he flew between the feeder and me... within 18 inches of my face and hovered there. We looked at each other eye to eye. I should have been snapping pictures, but instead I stood there in awe. What a thrilling moment for me!
I can't wait to get back out on my front porch again this morning and get more shots. I might increase the speed on my camera so I won't get as much wing blur... but I kind of like it in this shot with the backlighting. He looks like an angel.
Not the best focus, but with hummingbirds, I'm just happy if you can see their wings! I loved all the colors in this shot.
My son Roman found this Humming-bird Moth today, in the memorial garden that we planted for my parents. I've never seen one of these in person before, so I got pretty excited. Photographed in Maryland.
A single image, shot hand held. Canon 80D, Canon MPE macro lens, Canon twin macro flash. Aperture f/11, shutter speed 1/250, ISO 400, flash set to 1/16th power.
What can I say? There's just something about hummingbirds. I made a little hummingbird movie of a hummer I call Twitchy...check it out if you have a couple of minutes to spare. It isn't perfect, but I'm just figuring things out on the new camera. Enjoy your weekend!
Lots more hummingbird photos here.
