Super shots. The Hummies are a delight. It is too bad that we don't have them here. The Sunbirds is our delight. They are small, frisky, and very skittish. Their beautiful colors and curve beaks are the best if you can get a good capture. On the next chance you get to photo the Hummingbirds try to get some with their wings frozen. I am sure that you are very happy with the results that you are getting. So am I. Well done Ariel. Mabuhay.

Thanks Mark, Ely and Bob. I was really able to come close to the birds. I tried to shoot hoping to get that frozen wings but they're just too fast. But I won't give up until I get that "perfect pose"  Thanks for viewing. |
