p.1 #1 · A sleeping hummingbird

I went through my old files and I found this hummer shot. This was taken several
years ago and I remember that this hummer was flying in an awkward way. Soon,
I realized that this hummer was an immature hummer,still learning how to fly.
After a few minutes' flight,he stopped on top of the rock,falling asleep.

A touching shot Hide, I've seen the same routine where they get tuckered out and just nod off like this. A treasured moment

I did the same...three to be exact couple weeks ago. The only thing they attract are ants even though the hummers are in nearby trees. I must have used cheap mix or something

Nice capture Hide.

Hi Hide,

Great capture and very touching and cuteeeeee, it is an amazing feeling when we go back in time through the old captures and we find memories and moments frozen in time like this one.

Thanks for your comments, everybody.

Catching a hummer in flight is exciting and fun but catching any wildlife's ungaurded moment is special. I hope this
hummer is around today.
