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.

Enjoying a pleasant cup of coffee in our yard this morning and I noticed this hummingbird zip up to our last gladiola. I managed four frames in the second it was there and then it was gone. My best guess is a female Black Chinned Hummingbird.

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. ;-)

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.

Thanks for viewing my photos and for any favourites and comments, it’s much appreciated

Just a reminder, spring is only 54 days away!

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 always try to get a shot or two of my yard hummers before taking off to somewhere. Yesterday, she decided to cooperate with me by perching on this branch...but not for long. As you can see, she is just about to leave again. I caught her just in the nick of time!

REALLY LARGE

All My Hummers SLIDESHOW

 

Have you ever seen a hummingbird tongue? Neither had I.

This is a male Ruby-throated Hummingbird feeding on one of his favorite flowers on my patio - a variety of Lantana called "Red Spread." They seem to prefer any of the varieties that have red flowers, but feed from the yellow blossoms in the center. The wings are a bit blurred - I think he must have moved. I took this at 1/800th of a second, so that gives you some idea how fast the wings move.

Photo of a male Ruby-throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris). The flowers in the background are red and pink Geraniums (Geranium Caliente).

 

The photo was taken using manual focus. To capture detail in the wings, two remote Speedlite flash units were used with flash mode set to Manual and flash power set to 1/32.

 

To answer a question on how this was accomplished using what appears to be a slow shutter speed of 1/180 second, it is an example of the use of High-Speed Photography, using flash on low power, as well as the Max Sync Speed for your camera (1/180 for the Canon 6D). It's a very complex topic.

1/1250th of second - just fast enough.
