Some non-flash shooting in the backyard. All four species seen in Albuquerque are now present as the northern nesting birds are migrating through.
A shot from last summer of a Ruby-throated Hummingbird resting before zipping off to the nearby nectar feeder.
Clarence-Rockland, Ontario.
This one flies down and looks in the window every day. Buzzes back and forth at the window, sit on this branch for a minute or two then takes off. 20 - 25 minutes later does it again - all day. I grabbed the camera to grab a shot. She landed, stuck her tongue out at me and left.
Not easy to photograph these lovely animals. A feeding station for them but still not really close enough!

While hummingbirds are fierce with each other they don't appear to be too concerned about me standing about 6 feet from their feeder to take these pictures.
This one is one of the two bullies at this feeder.
