1st Hummer portrait


Had been waiting all summer for a chance at photographing a Hummer. Saw one in late spring , But not until several days ago did we see him again. In the last couple of days he has visited the feeders quite a bit. I decided to try and get a image. I was fortunate in that he decided to pose on a branch near the feeder and was able to get this portrait. Unfortunately I have not been able to get him in flight. Not sure if the flash is frightening him but it seem just as I press the shutter he bails backwards so that all I get is a shot of his breast with wings out of focus.



re-edited original image and added one inflight approaching the feeder.
