Action around feeder

I stopped out at a close metro park yesterday afternoon to shoot hummers. The action around the feeder looked interesting so I shot that while I was waiting for the hummingbird to arrive. The first two hummer shots I used 1/2000 and the last two I used 1/4000 sec.

Larryshuman, Thanks for your post. You were able to stop the wings of the hummingbird without using a flash?

On the 2 with stopped wings I was at 1/4000 with fill flash at -2.7 stops. I've got high speed sync set all the time
