We put up a hummingbird feeder just in front of our kitchen window. I honestly didn't know if it would attract any since I hadn't seen them around before.

It works! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I was only about three feet away...

It's amazing how quickly Hummingbirds can find a new feeder. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />

Almost makes you wonder if they hang around the stores waiting for people to buy them, and then follow them home and anxiously await the installation. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Great pics! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

That's great, apprentice. I have seen one or two here. I think I'll get a feeder and see what happens. It would be fun to watch them. Thanks for the inspiration. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

nice capture! Mike Spinak told me to get good shots of hummers to have the sun behind you, then you get to capture more of their special colors, also of course the highest speed settings (manual) and you could get some tiny "frozen-hot-wings" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I HATE BIRDS.
around here, there just a nuisance, and there are too many...
time to break out the paintball gun!

glad they're something that you can enjoy. (I guess hummingbirds aren't as annoying as some of the birds around here)
