Description


On the one day that my mom and I were taking pictures of the deer, We were both being buzzed by a hummingbird. And I promised you all a shot or two of the bird. Here is one of the many pictures I was able to get of this flying jewel. As anyone who has ever tried getting a shot of a hummingbird in flight, it is no easy task and most of the time, you are lucky to get a blur or nothing at all. Now I do have some where the little bird is perched on the feeder and I may post it as well later on. As to the tag game, the one reason I haven't gone on with the game is that there is a new player in town, Seaview123, (Tom) who wishes to play with us. So now I've another person whose gallery I must trample through to decide who will suffer the horrible mark ups. I wish you all a great Friday Mike Thaks for looking and all the wonderful comments and faves

I figure I'm lucky just to see one every five years or so and I've only managed one shot that was just pure luck because I never saw him until I had released the shutter. So this is okay!

Great capture of the little guy Mike, I always enjoy seeing them at our feeders. By the way that's a catchy tune the little guy is humming, by any chance do you know what it is ;)

I have hundreds of pics of hummingbirds, and maybe 10 to 12 that don't have much blurr on them! It is very hard, like you said, to get a clean good shot of the little hummers! This is a very good shot though! She looks as if she has her little head tilted, as to say, "Come on, hurry, take the shot"! Great shot Mike!

You know my friend. I believe well that the birds feel to it not mischievousness of a person. If not pouff it was already there . Beautiful catch and mile mercies. They are the most magic these birds bring a smile of satisfaction to any blow ((5++)) Tu sais mon ami . Je crois bien que les oiseaux ressentent la non malice d'une personne. Sinon pouff il était déjà plus la . Belle prise et mile mercis . Se sont les plus magiques ces oiseaux Ils apportent un sourire de satisfaction à tout coup ((5++))
