This series is of the Ruby Throated Hummingbirds that took up residence in and around my back yard and garden this past Summer.
I found it amazing how perceptive these little creatures are. They would fly rite up in front of me and hover when I would enter their space . I think to say please leave my space, or hover and feed within a few feet of were I sat or stood, but point a camera in their direction and poof they were gone. Still I have managed to get a few pics of them . here are a few of my favorites.

A female ruby-throated hummingbird from Labor Day weekend at Mill Pond. I think its a female although I suppose it could be an immature male. I staked them out at the garden and awaited my chance. This was the best I could do. Not too much noise for ISO 800 and a little crop. Such quick little buggers.

Kinglets are tiny insectivores that actively forage for insect and spider eggs on the undersides of foliage. They weigh less than an ounce and are among the smallest of songbirds. They often hover in front of a branch, gleaning food from its tips and undersides. Kinglets often flick their wings as they move about.

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.

Myself and Connor Stefanison are currently developing a 2016 workshop focused on photographing breeding Common Loons, Red-necked Grebes, as well as breeding songbirds, here in British Columbia. Photography will be done mainly from flat-bottom fly fishing boats and lodging is available in a fantastic lakeside resort. If this interests you, please send me an email at jfindlayphotography@gmail.com to be added to the wish list!

Ruby-throated Hummingbird... focus is a tad soft. I try to get shots of them in flight but away from the feeder which is a bit more difficult. If you want to provide food I suggest planting native wildflowers such as cardinal flower, blue lobelia, bee balm, red buckeye, blue sage. Non-natives that they seem to enjoy include any purple flowered sage... red or purple tubular flowers in general. My complete photo archive is available here.

Hummingbirds have many skeletal and flight muscle adaptations which allow great agility in flight. Muscles make up 25–30% of their body weight, and they have long, blade-like wings that, unlike the wings of other birds, connect to the body only from the shoulder joint. This adaptation allows the wing to rotate almost 180°, enabling the bird to fly not only forward but backward, and to hover in mid-air, flight capabilities that are similar to insects and unique among birds. Hummingbird hovering has been estimated to be 20% more efficient than performed by a helicopter drone.
