@overalvandaan Thank you so very much, we seem to have a few more hummingbirds this year.
@jernst1779 Most grateful, thank you so much. I was using burst mode and hoping to capture them, got very lucky.
@k9photo The Helios is a lens, known for its bokeh, it is from Russia and completely manual. I had to get an adapter so it would fit on my camera.
@sunnygirl I am still trying to grasp the finer points of this lens but I got really lucky.
@onewing Playing is how I learn best, I do fall flat on my face often but some days, things work out well.
@kali66 I have my camera's peaking level on max which helped me get a better focus - also using burst mode and just kept trying for about 15-20 minutes. My patio 'coffee' chair is very close to the feeder and I think that they are sorta used to me.
@olivetreeann Thank you so kindly, burst mode and a 64gb card as well as lucky played a huge role.
@bubblequeen Thank you so very much. I would like to be on the same level when they feed but I need to keep the feeder out of reach of my dog who would frighten them off.
@shepherdmanswife Thank you so very much, the lens is a Russian one known for its bokeh. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helios_(lens_brand) )- you will probably need an adapter- I have two, one for my Sony A and one for my mirrorless. They are completely manual but a great deal of fun to play with.
@vignouse Thank you so very much. I think that the Russians did this right, it is a huge amount of fun to play with.
@pusspup Thank you so much, I got lucky but burst mode helped a great deal.
have a great weekend

@ninaganci Very appreciative, thank you so kindly. I just plopped down, drank coffee and got lucky but burst mode was a huge help too.
