The hoover bees have started flying again here in Alabama. I hope to get a few good photos of them this year. Not an easy task for me. This one was caught in the middle of the day using my Tamron 180mm lens.

nice shot....I've seen many of them around my back deck but they don't hover enough in one spot to get a shot of them....Tom

I know, I thought humming birds were tough but these babies are a real challenge.

Nice shots. So far all I have been able to get are a few out of focus shots and a deep dislike for auto focus lens.
