To take away those winter blues....

I took this guy's picture while on a walk on the bluffs overlooking the Pacific. He must have been staking out his territory, because he was on one of two perches for hours. I must have taken over 200 pictures, but like most photography, only a couple are worth sharing. I was trying different techniques, hand holding the camera, using a tripod, different lenses and a flash. The hummingbird provided a nice photography class for me yesterday.

I agree with Elaine - something besides snow is beautiful! Hummers are my favorite. I only get to see the ruby throated hummers here.

A couple of years ago I had a male ruby who was really tame. He would work over the feeder with me standing right next to it.

Thanks Dave for helping me to remember that warmth, sun and hummers will return!

What an awesome picture!

Thanks so much!

I've been trying to draw hummingbirds to a feeder for a year or so, but if I've had any luck, I've missed it.
