About Today I photgraphed my first Hummingbird in the wild, or anywhere else for that matter. My first shot was of this bird feeding. later it came back and landed and I got this series. Note the tongue sticking out.
This is a rather intense crop so a little detail was lost.

WOW...this is good.
about the only time I see these guys resting is when at guard of their 'stash'!

They are such interesting birds to watch.

Nice job on this image!

Wow Jim that is so cool.....
Just to get this shot and then to capture the tongue out !
I don't know that I have even seen a humming bird stop.
Get detail, I don't think the crop lost much.
I set out a feeder this weekend and we only seen one humming bird and that was right before I took it down to go home.

First off sorry I haven't been more on the ball with my comments. Lots going on. YOu know what I mean.
Well I got a new vehicle and wanted to take a little drive. I poped over the bridge to Wisconsin, and pulled down by the boat landing, Some motion caught my eye so I pulled over to the edge of the parking lot and sat there for 1 1//2 hours. got butterflies, birds and this little guy.
In summary, " even blind hog finds an acorn once in awhile "

Very cool little bird, where on earth do you find these in the wild? They have a tongue similar to that of a butterfly. :)
