Springtime Hummers

JacaRanda · Mar 28, 2015

Finally decided to do micro adjustments on a couple of lenses. It was crude and certainly not done exactly as the instructions I used recommended; particularly the distance from the target I should have been. Oh well - I don't think I screwed anything up.

Thanks for looking

Anyway - 4 Hummer shots from this morning.

I love hummingbirds and while some parts of my area get them, around my house is a total void. I've planted every kind of flower they are supposed to like, hung feeders, and played soft music for them, said nice things about them but alas, they just don't pay a visit. Wahhhhhhhhhh

Mother Nature and her minions just don't always cooperate

However, what kind of music did you play for them; I heard they like jazz.

I just saw George Benson last night. Me thinks the Hummers would enjoy 'Breezin' This version with Carlos Santana

Very nice! Particularly #3. All my recent HB photos are at the feeder due to a lack (at least in my yard) of flowers so far this spring.

I played East West from the Butterfield Blues band since it has so many different section runs. Seemed like a good choice. Maybe they'd like KISS more.
