Excellent! I had looked at some similar list earlier and chosen Petunias as the easiest to find/cheapest choice.

I will look at the others you mentioned earlier. Thank you.

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.

Wow. You all have taken some beautiful hummingbird pictures. I tried for the first time the other day. Mine are not worthy to be posted in this thread. But you all have given me inspiration to keep working at it.

I just got my 7D Mark II last week, so I'm still learning my way around it. This is with the EF 400mm f5.6L and cropped almost 50%.
1/320 sec., f5.6. ISO was 1250 trying to get a feel for not having IS.
