Backyard series - Hummingbird

If you click on the link to Flickr... you can see the image a little larger. More details. LINK TO ORIGINAL

Series of shots from this evening. I just placed the feeder a couple days ago... the hummingbirds are still nervous with me being around it. I think in a week or so... they should be a little more comfortable. Hoping to get closer for more detailed/larger shots.

Thanks for looking

Great set Hatch, they look much better in the larger images.

Yes, just hang out near the feeder; they'll get used to you. Some of mine hit the feeder as I am bringing it out of the house after a refill. These Costa's are less skittish than other species we have here.

Also, use silent mode (if you're not already); it helps.

BTW.... nice shots!
