Ruby-throated Hummingbird

Well, the males are anyway. wink These are actually my very first hummingbird pictures. It was just approaching dusk, so the shutter speed was slow enough to completely blur the wings.

We don`t have hummingbirds so it is always nice to see them in photographs yes

A good-looking baby. A very successful first attempt to capture this bird!

Thanks everyone, I didn't realize you guys in Europe don't hummingbirds. right

@Lois - I saw the hummingbird a few days after the feeder was hung up, but she's still the only regular visitor. Hope they've come around for you by now. smile
