The Arizona Sonoran Desert Museum has a really nice Hummingbird Aviary. I was able to get some photos of a nesting hummer with my T2i and 55-250mm is ii.

Nice feather details, very sharp! The Sonoran Desert Museum is a neat place, visited it a couple times while in the area. John

Those are neat pics, nice work! Haven't been there for years, well before I was "into" bird photography. I need to get back there!

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