a big stretch for a tiny bird.
A perfect little gem, indeed!
Such a beauty, and a wonderful capture!
He’s a beauty!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Incredible shot! and great texture work!
Pat, this is awesome!! I saw one this morning and he was gone before I could get up out of the patio chair to grab the camera. Darn things are so quick!
Pat, I think he saw you!
Great shot Pat! That is quite the stretch!
Oh, wow, that’s gorgeous!
That is a great capture! I just can’t seem to capture a hummingbird.
a gem! that describes it well!!
he’s a beauty!
great capture…..
Beautiful picture you show
Great photo! These are so hard to capture like this – very nice!
Pat, great shot of the Ruby Throated Hummer.
Simply…..stunning Pat!!!!
Nice shot! I would love to see these birds in nature!
Beautiful details!
Lovely photo! I would also (like Hans) love to see this little sweetie once, but they don’t live in Sweden I’m afraid.
Greetings Pia
I just love hummingbirds, great capture.
Beautiful photographs, beautiful bird. I am greeting
grat shot Pat. He really shows off his beautiful throat.
Perfect shot of a perfect bird — it really shows exactly what a birder would look for to identify this lovely hummer — and plus it shows his personality!!!
really spreading those wings, must be a big day!! i am still hoping to get one good shot, i am not getting many hummers this year!!
Love, love LOVE this!! They are a challenge to photograph, but you captured it well and in great detail and clarity. Fabulous! I just love all the hummingbirds flying around our feeders. They are part of my therapy!
Little in size, big in impact.
Fantastic capture!
Very sweet!
Wow, stunning! Thanks for visiting my blog.
what a sweet photo – very beautiful!
Simply perfection Pat, and what a beauty he is.
We have had a huge lack of hummingbirds this season.
A handsome little fella! One doesn’t always see the red neck feathers in males so clearly.
I am just ever amazed, how you can keep capturing unique bird photos. This one I believe is the BEST story telling one! SO sweet….
