Yes please Maven, I'd love to see them too. They were always too quick for my camera.

Female Hummingbird

Best one of the lot...I'll upload a few more if there's interest. The boys tend to be warier at the feeder than the girls.

That's a nice photo Maven. My Mom has hummingbirds up at her cottage but they move around so quickly, it's hard to catch a glimpse of them.

Thank you for the kind words!

Digital...Kodak EasyShare DX6490, on an automatic setting. I had the camera on a tripod and took probably 50 shots, with 3-4 that are worth keeping. I have to fiddle around with my home network before I can upload the others.

That is a fantastic picture, Maven. How do you tell males from females, by the color?
