Haven't captured one in a while...it seems as if they don't come around as often.

The first is from early morning the second from noon. The temperature was brutal and both times I waited about an hour.

Nice to see a hummer ..
I agree with you, they dont seem to be coming around as often as usual,
but I was seeing one today, but rather the photograph, I just sat and watch it in all its beauty.

I have decided to stick with my long zoon for Hummers. I can't get close enough with the 135. Its great for my windows shoots but too short for longer distances.

The was captured at 253mm.

Nice image of the Hummingbird. What kind is that? Merlin said Rufous?

Outstanding 253mm capture. He looks like he is on a mission. Super sharp.
