One of This Season's Hummingbirds

The first shot is from early this morning when the light wasn't as bright. The red reflection is from the feeder. I got the last two of these shots about an hour ago.
Our feeders have had a lot of visitors, up to 10 at a time. Even the local Mockingbird likes to take a sip now and then.
These shots are of a female Anna's Hummingbird.
Advice is welcome.

Great shots. I love photographing Hummingbirds, but it'll be a coupe of months before the Ruby Throats start showing up here.
It's great that you could get them away from the feeder

I love hummingbirds. I usually take video of them feeding. We have 3 feeders and we've counted over 25 at a time around the feeders.

My neighbor and I have lots of feeders out and we get lots of Ruby Throated Hummers, but they all seem to be so damn territorial. One will stake out a feeder and spend more time running others off it than they will feeding. Selfish little buggers.

Lovely shots, and I especially like #2 for the sharpness. You could count the feathers!
