Broad-billed Hummingbird | Cynanthus latirostris | Tuscon Audobon's Paton Center for Hummingbirds, Patagonia, AZ | 3-31-16
A flash of green and red, the Ruby-throated Hummingbird is eastern North America’s sole breeding hummingbird. These brilliant, tiny, precision-flying creatures glitter like jewels in the full sun, then vanish with a zip toward the next nectar source.
The Ruby-throated Hummingbird beats its wings about 53 times a second.

Ruby Throated Hummingbird Green Spring Gardens - I think it was telling me what it thought of my photographing it.

4 hummingbirds with the word "violet" in their names in one day. Amazing. (Violet-capped, Violet-headed, Violet-bellied, and Violet-crowned Woodnymph)
This was shot during the peak of hurricane Irene - we had no power, but the hummers kept us amused the whole time! Our feeders are sheltered with an overhang, and the rain didn't seem to slow the birds a bit!
Pretty interesting twist here. The hummingbird was flying along, checking out the bugs - not the flowers. Pretty neat!
I waited all summer to catch this hummingbird, and got it just on my birthday! What a great present!

took this shot with the first sunlight, not in the flight but while the bird was resting to show their beautiful feathers

This is an image I took last week using a new lighting method that is outline below.
I learned the lighting from a book by Linda Robbins called The Hummingbird Guide. Her method is to use a minimum 0f 5 to 6 strobes, a supplied background (which my wife painted), and photograph the birds in the shade so that you don't have to overpower the sunlight. When you use multiple strobes on a subject in the shade you can use lower power settings for each flash which results in shorter flash durations which means it freezes the wing blur. I used 6 Yongnuo strobes because I wanted to use identical manual power output for each flash . One strobe was pointed at the background, one was underneath the feeder, and the other 4 strobes surrounded the feeder. The strobes were all at under 1/16th power, in manual mode, and were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N., and you can see the EXIF info on the side. This method is the only way that I've been able to photograph one of these birds with little, or no, wing blur. Down below in the first comment, you can see a picture of the setup that I used.
I've taken quite a few pictures of hummers over the years and put them an album creatively called Hummingbirds.
