Don't Mess with Me with a Torn Tail Feather

Some of the baby hummingbirds have hatched so there is more action at the feeder than there has been for a while. The torn feather doesn't seem to be slowing him down.
Thanks so much for your visits, comments, favs. I appreciate every one
Beautiful

Brilliant shot against a black background. He really pops off the page.

Oh my goodness! I have barely been on 365 the last few weeks. It's slow at work today so I thought I'd check to see what people were up to. So happy to see you had posted! And this is just beautiful!

This is stunning Jane, especially against the dark background. Big FAV!

@nanalisarocks Thanks Lisa. Great to hear from you. How are things? I have an appointment in Portland this Friday and am going to go to Trillium Lake while we are North and camp and hopefully get some shots

That's great, Jane, have a fabulous time!

Instant Fav, Jane. Outstanding lighting and amazing to see this against such a dark background. Enjoy Portland and then the camping trip! I will get there this fall -- my nephew and his wife are there and now they have 2 little ones and a new house and new dental practice. I have to get there sooner rather than later!

@taffy maybe we could meet up? Near Prtland or better yet you take a day or two and visit me on the OR coast?

@jgpittenger Now that I'm semi-retired, I could take you up on it! That would be so much fun!! Let's see how the move goes when I'm back and how much time I can be away. It would be fun to tag that onto a visit to my nephew and family with Jim, then he could go back and teach and we could meet up. When do the heavy rains start, or is fall a decent time of year?

Fall is the best...though we will be gone for some of October. September is glorious. November iffy

I am amazed at how far you have to push the ISO to get this shutter speed, and still get a decent picture.
