My daughter was in Denver and took a picture of something, when I saw the picture there was a little blur in it . When I enlarged it , it was a perfect picture of hummingbird coming right at the camera ( I Phone ) if I can find it I’ll post it here . It was pretty cool too.

Thanks for sharing Eric.

The little devils love to fly into my garage then not know the way out. I have to leave all the doors open and wait for dusk. Then they leave.

David Attenborough did a study of them and presented it on PBS TV.

The flying technique and skills of hummingbirds, forward and reverse, or just floating in one place, are unvelievable.

Thanks for sharing, Eric.

Hello Eric!, how are you friend?... that video that shows the hummingbird is beautiful.
I've set up a nectar dispenser for the hummingbirds, but winter comes here and they're gone... I'll wait a few months to see if they reappear.
Aeromodelos?...I'm putting together an Extra 260 for a 30cc gasoline engine and an Extra 300 SP for Saito .82 of 4 Tiemos, I'll share them here in the forum when they're ready!
A big hug for you friend!

Very nice Eric Very Happy

….. I don’t have a feeder out but they come and visit the sunflowers I have for them and all the other birds….I’ve read that their metabolism is super high…. Good you have a feeder for them Very Happy

Incredible just superb the impossible photo worthy of a wild life animal photographer I have often seen incredible photos but this one is so beautiful but even more so that it was not wanted and that it was simply taken by chance cheers

Hi getback,
The hummingbirds here have a ~ 4in span, next to impossible to see.
I can hear them, stop for a second at a flower, then a few more, then gone.
Amazing flyers.
Thanks for the photos,
Take care,
Have fun,
Dave
