Hummers are my favorite summer birds. Although, I worked on stopping wing action this past summer, I failed miserably. Even with setting a higherISO to stop wing action, all I achieved was a lot of noise.
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em in the lilac bush. Or they can join you under the shelter of a porch in a downpour.
Oh well, there's next summer!

We took an hour cruise on Florida's St. John River this past spring - the banks were teeming with exotic birds!

we are lucky to have several wildlife refuges here in New Mexico. Every winter we have snow geese and sand hill cranes take up residence. Photographing the geese can be tricky--they tend to abruptly and without warning take off in one huge hysterical flock. Getting pictures can depend on luck and being ready--no time to fiddle with camera settings! I tried to capture the feeling of the chaotic flock in the first couple shots.
You certainly caught the hysterical...I can hear the quacks!

I have more. With the exception of the Scarlet Tanager, all are birds we see regularly at our tree and feeder just about 6 feet from our back windows.
Nice group, Pat!

LOL The Chickens or the Eggs??
The eggs - my son-in-law got sick of chicken poop all over the place - they (the chickens, not the children!) are now mostly confined in a fenced-in area.
