. . . showing his colorful throat patch. I spent a couple of frustrating hours trying to get a good shot of the iridescent ruby red throat patch on a male hummingbird. I finally settled on this shot although I'm not completely happy with it. This experience definitely reminded me that hummingbirds are not easy to photograph.
I'd be VERY happy with that, but we don't have them here in England so I'll have to wait for the Humming Bird Hawk Moth instead.
Lovely shot of a lovely birdie

Really nice shot of the male - I have two that are busy playing chase all day - I can't find an angle to get the lighting from inside the house when they're here. Love the feather detail, too. Fav
This is amazing. They are so hard to capture, this fellow is crystal clear and not moving, which is a miracle! I sure didn’t know their necks were so long.
