I spend a lot of time each year trying to take the perfect hummingbird photo. I got some nice ones this year, but none as good as last year’s. I will put that one up also. The hummingbirds’ feeders are right off Dave and Deb’s deck (they obviously do not have a bear), but their wings beat 10-15 times per second and are very difficult to capture. Here are this year’s.
Those are my best of this year. Next is last year’s best, which is hard to beat. I shall continue my quest. If we did not have a bear I might have more time to conquer.

I love hummingbirds. I always watch them when I go north. great pictures. It always amazes me how fast their wings go, even while they eat.

my personal vote is for the fourth one down…i think they’re all pretty amazing shots, but i really like that one.
your photos always amaze me anyway….you really have an eye…
glad y’all got home safe and well…hopefully a bit rested and relaxed…certainly looks like the dogs got to relax anyway.
