Have you ever observed a humming-bird moving about in an aerial dance among the flowers – a living prismatic gem…. it is a creature of such fairy-like loveliness.

They really have that fairy-like loveliness….. Hummingbirds….
This week, at a friends backyard, I finally was able to photograph one taking a rest from its hovering dance and taking a break in the Coral Honeysuckle. Ah……., so much beauty in such a small little bird!

Really like the first one of the bird hovering. Nice capture. Can you imagine what sort of shutter speed you would need to freeze the wings???? Wow!
Thanks Rick. Just getting the shot was hard š they move up and down so quickly.
Een hele mooie foto van zo’n klein vogeltje.
Thanks!
Beautiful shots and a great quote!
Thanks Mike.
Great shots and post. Hummers are full of wonder. They stop me on my tracks.
Thank you. They indeed are full of wonder, beautiful way of saying that.
