Shot at the Huntington Library Gardens. Right now, they have so many hummingbirds. It's a wonderful time of year to visit there.
I hope you're enjoying my hummingbird collection. These shots are all from this year... :)
Thanks again for joining me here.

I think this may be a young bird. Anyhow, it stayed around and gave me several nice shots, unlike the Rufous who just buzzed by and chased another hummingbird away, then disappeared.
This hummingbird was run off by 2 others shortly after this was snapped out the window...nothing unusual about that.
We have started to see them over the past week or so.
Sue put up some newly acquired feeders today which now total 4. We found a super buy on them this morning at the local TSC. (Tractor Supply Store Canada)
They were quickly pressed into use.
Photographing hummingbirds in the shade, use single focus point and place on the eye, find bird that will stay in one place for a second or two, use camera with eight fps or faster, use a fast lens with a close focus distance, I use an extension tube to get down to eight feet from ten.
We usually have a few hummers every year...this year it seems we only have one skittish female that visits here and there. Yesterday I took my camera out in the backyard to have near me in the event she showed while we were eating lunch...much to my surprise, she made my day with a visit to the lantana hanging basket and also to my crocosomia lucifer.
Hot day and thirsty hummingbirds emptied all their feeders. They were really looking for more. I filled them up again and they were quickly back at them. 94°F in Atlanta at 5 in the afternoon!
Here we are the next day, and that Hummingbird stills has that HONEY BEE SHISH KABOB on his beak. Or is it another Honey Bee?

The expression of this Anna's Hummingbird staring down the axis of my camera's lens making it's long beak almost imperceptible. I sure it was wondering when I would stop taking pictures so it could feed at the hummingbird feeder next to me. The face made my day and hopefully puts a smile on yours.

Rufous Hummingbird (Selasphorus rufus) on an acreage W of Duncan on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. This was my first attempt at a flying hummingbird and I quickly realized that a shutter speed of 200 is not great. I guess you have to try once then learn from it.

Ruby Throated Hummingbird - Male.... I had to put out another feeder today because there is 2 males here now. I put one on the other side of the house so the bully couldn't see the other one.

Time to fulfill my hummingbird addiction. I saw lots of little Anna's hummingbirds this weekend, but none of my shots were completely spectacular. This is from the archives, a male broad-billed hummingbird in the Hummingbird aviary, Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum.
Obviously, not the best of lighting with him back lit, but bokeh's rather nice, I think. ;-)
