Of all the bird species to photograph up close there is none easier than the hummingbird if one does some preparation. All that is needed is a feeder and a well lit perch. Capturing these birds in mid-air is another thing altogether!
Wow! Great detail. I really like the green feathers.
I just commented on your previous post...it was the newest one at that moment. After the screen refreshed, this post appeared! I see we're both on-line at the same time ;)
WOW! That is an amazing shot. A lot of people have been having luck capturing hummingbirds lately, but none of them have been that close and clear. Amazing shot!
great close up of the hummer. I spent last week posting the hummingbird. They are so much fun to watch. I did get some really good ones of them in flight. The trick was just before sundown and a flash to freeze the wings.
