Return of the Hummers

Home

We love to watch them return for the Summer. The Hummingbirds
swarm our back porch starting mid April each year. In a couple
of weeks they'll be familiar with us and fly right up to us.

Off for several days with Ellie and April to the mountains.

A couple of Atmosphere shots...

One from a "Tennis Match" for fun...

You captured the return so well!

A perfect dof that gives a rich yet not disturbing bokeh, excellent sharpness on the hummingbird. Nice capture.

almost lost amongst its surrounding

Well done. I've never before seen a shot of a hummer perching.

I'm with Dale below. You sure this bird is real? LOL

Have a wonderful time, Scott! I am sure you are going to take lots of pictures.

This bird must be stuffed, or Super-Glued to the branch-they never hold still. Nice shot!

These little fellas are hard to catch Scott. Nice job.

Guest		01-May-2007 01:13

Enjoy your time away with your family Scott. I have yet to see a hummingbird at all, I have a nice new feeder ready and waiting.
