Thanks so much John. I worry about boring people with the same old thing. I'm glad you enjoyed these.

These are great shots! I have never seen a shot of a hummingbird sitting on a limb. I have only seen them hovering at a feeder. Great find.



I really appreciate the time you've taken to look and comment Margo. Thank you.

I'm fortunate that these birds have a place to rest between feedings. Hopefully they'll bring their babies along one of these days.

Wonderful detail and the colors are beautiful! I love looking at their little faces and eyes that always look a bit angry.



Thanks so much Carla. It's amazing that such little birds could have so much character. I always enjoy watching them.

Thanks so much James. You're quite right about the qualities of these birds. They are an interesting and challenging to try to photograph.

I love all bird pictures in UHH, but these hummers you shot are really great with lots of detail. I was wondering why so many hummingbirds come thru your yard; do you or your neighbor have sugar syrup available?



Thanks for looking and commenting. I appreciate it.

Let's say I make it worthwhile for them to visit. I recently noticed the neighbor is also feeding them. We have another neighbor who has bee hives, so we're feeding bees, as well, :-)

Great color and detail. I have only seen hummingbirds a couple of times and would love to get pictures like yours. Keep shooting!

I keep trying to get something a little different and interesting to share of these little birds. I seem to have a constant stream of them coming through the yard. They're challenging, but fun to watch. Hopefully you'll get a sense of that from these photos. I have many shots but have picked six of the better ones to post today.

Suggestions and advice are always appreciated.

Love these little guys, and what beautiful shots. A challenge to photograph, and how great you have some options. Last year I attached branches to my feeder, and that helps. This year only one has opted to return. Still hoping for more.
