Last week at Berkeley Aquatic Park, I had a very willing hummingbird do more than the usual pose, as he went through his self-grooming contortions long enough in the same spot to let me capture this whole series:
Wow, what a series! The positions are fabulous. Isn't it amazing what can be captured when you have to time and patience? Well done on these and thanks for sharing them.
Hey, nice stuff here. I know every one of those positions as I've seen Anna's do it as well. They're so funny the way they contort themselves into so many different positions. It's amazing how many unique shots you can get of one little animal, isn't it?
Btw, I especially like the beak detail in shots 3 and 5. Well done

Thanks, Rob. I was especially happy with these since it was only the 2nd time shooting with my new (for me) used 500L f4.5 lens (and 1st time with a 1.4x tc on that lens).
