p.1 #1 · Wait, there's more -- 'Hummers', that is


Here's another batch of 'Hummer' shots from our trip to Rockport, TX. Several of these were taken at a location where it poured rain off and on -- so some of these little guys were pretty water logged.

Thanks, John.
It's honestly hard not to have success in this environment. The toughest part is that time is limited and there are so many private homes and spots that are available to visit, I only get to scratch the surface. This year there were 26 different homes and other location to go watch and photograph 'Hummers'. We only stayed 2 nights, and I think my wife and I made it to about 6 or 7 in about a day and a half -- one home we went to twice because it was really a rich environment.

Real nice Greg. I've found photographing hummers in the rain to be quite rewarding
