Those are very special hummer captures Kevin. I love the catchlights in the eyes.
Here's hoping they hang around you a lot so you can bring us some more gems like these.

Beautiful detail. At 1/200 he must have been hovering perfectly still.

Very nice shots, they almost look staged they are so good. Did you bribe that hummer to pose for you?

I dressed up as a female humming bird!. they do hover for a little bit. the freezing is done with the flash. the background had the sun still shining, but the hummer was 2-3 stops underexposed without the flash.
