Fantastic! Great captures. I always struggle with hummingbirds they just move so darn quick!

Good work! It's so hard to capture this quickly moving and tiny bird in an image. I hope you continue to take and share pics through the summer!

Those are goregous shots, great job! I love the Ruby Throated Humming Bird lol, I actually did a report back in grade school on it when I lived in Texas. Speaking of Humming Birds...where I just moved to there's quite a few that live right out front my door. I've tried to take a picture a couple of times, but they're just too damn fast lol. But as well, a nicer lense would also help.

What kind of lense did you use for those shots?

Love these shots. Great capture on the 2nd shot too. I wonder what shutter speed you actually need to capture their wings as still.
