Humming in the rain

This Ruby Throated hummingbird was really enjoying the rain. She acted like she was in a birdbath. She was shaking her wings and tail feathers. It was so fun to watch! :0)

Thank you for your nice comments on yesterday's pic of Trouble! We didn't walk in the field today. because was raining. :0)
oh what a pretty bird is the Hummingbird. Yesterday I had no camera but I stood chatting with a man who had a Nikon and was firing shots of a Sunbird on a Calliandra. Man I was kicking myself!!!

Lovely little guy ...beautiful rain capture too! We had rain yesterday and today! Wonderful to get it ...but hard to get a pic!! Love your capture.

Wonderful picture! The hummingbirds are so hard to get this clear a shot of. I'm really impressed! I usually come across what you post the next day when I'm walking - does this mean rain is coming my way?? (hope hope). Of course, I would take that hummingbird opportunity otherwise.

Amazing capture, clear detail of the bird but slow enough to catch the rain as rods.

Such a cute capture. I'm sure with such a dry summer it really enjoyed the rain. We had rain for the last two days and have totally enjoyed it too! :)
