Hummers

These little guys were about the size of a large ant when i first noticed them. I wasn't sure if they were even alive. We watched them get bigger over the past 3 weeks and yesterday while i was trying to get one more shot, they took to the air and freedom from the silver dollar size nest.

I love shooting hummers.... especially when they are hovering near the feeder. Awesome to capture them in motion with high-speed shutter!!!!

Fantastic! I guess it's a good they can fly now - they are definitely getting too big for their nest!

Wonderful! Thanks for sharing.
I would love to find a nest, but at least I've had them land on my fingers to grab a drink from the feeder. That's a sensation I'll never forget.

Thank you everyone for your kind comments. I found out, it harder to shot these birds than one thinks. The branches always moving and changing focus.
