I'm drawn to these guys like a bug to light. If you view large, you can see the small rain drops on her beak. Just amazing, these little creatures. I apologize in advance. I'll be doing tons of hummingbird photos I think! :)

I like the contrasts in this one! They are amazing creatures! Can't wait to see what else you get.

[Vee]

Nice one! I'll look forward to more of your hummingbird shots!

[Nancy]

Beautiful shot! I see the water drops!

[Daryl O'Hare]

@espyetta @vskolnik @nanderson I can't wait to take one with actual sunlight! :)

[Danette Thompson]

Another fine capture.

thankyou for all your comments Daryl, I appreciate them

[Cathie]

Such amazing photo -- and a truly amazing bird. Keep the hummingbird photos coming, Daryl!

[Chrissie]

Awesome shot.

[Taffy]

I would be photographing them too if they'd only come back! Many of us on the island are wondering why we don't have them around much this year and it's clear, they are all in Atlanta!!! Beautiful, stunning, wonderful shot!

[Lisa Stein]

[sue hunter]

It is hard to believe you caught this tiny flitty bird which is only a few inches long! But you did!

[Karin Treff]

Great capture! Such a beautiful, little bird. Can't wait to see more. I don't often see them in my backyard. Lighting is great too!

[Daryl O'Hare]

@jo13 You are so sweet Jo. I'm stuck with one subject because I am trapped by rain, but I'm not complaining--nothing like a hummingbird to present a challenge, right?

[Daryl O'Hare]

@danette @kali66 @cathieg @chrissieh @pflaume @ness50 @tara11 @nicoleterheide @dstod @shunter @kaarina365 Thanks all. As I suspected would happen again, I'm a lousy commenter--so appreciate your visits and comments. Off to take a look at your photos now! :)

[Daryl O'Hare]

@taffy Thanks Taffy--well, now you'll just have to plan a visit to ATL! I'm just learning about hummingbirds. "Nature" on PBS has an excellent show on them--amazing creatures.

[lunaksi]

Beautiful capture! Love the lighting!

[Laurie]

SUCH fantastic hummingbird shots, Daryl!! Love them all!
