p.1 #1 · Need a Stretcher ???

Posting 7-images from 2010 to 2014. BB inspired the thread with a recent thread of her own.

Yesterday August 1, 2014, I got my first female ruby throat stretching (#7). The light was not as good as I would have liked, that is the way it goes.

My PP has vastly improved over the last two years so I reedited the first 6-images from my original photographs.

Enjoy.

These don't just hum Ted...they sing! (Although my neck hurts just looking at all those twists and turns). The IQ is superb...

Fine work on the re-edits Ted. I'm guessing the hummers have been more spooky the last few seasons for you, switching from 300 to 700mm for the most part recently ? Looks like 2011 and 2012 were some great seasons for you.

Good morning Ted,
You are too kind to mention me at the top of your post

Number two taken in 2011 is my favorite! Boy, do the males sing colorful beauty. Maybe one day a grown male will visit my bee balm in June

So glad you got the pretty lady the other day to add to your stretching collection

Very nice collection you put together Ted

Sending you hummers capture vibes

Amazing set -- forgive the ignorance but are the hummers doing some sort of mating ritual or are they just contorting themselves during preening?
