Its been awhile since I have seen a hummer in the yard. Today while getting some sun I faced to HB feeder with my camera ready. After staring in that direction for about hour it paid off.

I haven't seen many in my yard this year. In fact it seems like most birds are staying away.

I suspect weather patterns influence behavior.

I agree. Our feeder has been thick with them and getting more so. The only decent shots I've gotten during the lockdown. I am in the Willamette Valley in Oregon.

Your comment is interesting. We have been talking about how fewer birds we are seeing this year, compared to the prior years. We have had a rather dramatically wetter spring this year.

great photos. As a rookie photographer, may I ask what were the settings and what lens/camera did you use to capture these hummingbirds. And did you handhold or use tripod? thanks
