Very nice capture! You're lucky you get more than one species of hummingbird.

This is my favorite of the two Short-billed Dowitcher shots, EB! I like this bird's pose. It's quite attractive.

I really like this Harrier shot. Gorgeous well lit shot of typical hunting pose with spread wings and tail. Like the diffuse background which shows the environment without distracting. Very nice.

Thank you very much. I had seen her flying in the distance so I just sat and hoped she would come back towards me. She eventually did and put on a display for me. I was very lucky.

I like this shot! You can almost see the gull thinking "Yes, I got the last post!" while the Cormorant watches warily. The subdued colors all work well and the various yellows all complement each other. Very cool.

Hi sogs...Thanks for the kind words. In this case, I had to drive about 5 hours to southeastern Arizona to get this hummer. As far as my own location (Scottsdale), I have only photographed the Anna's and a couple of Costa's over the years. Southeastern Arizona is a noted area for a wide variety of hummingbirds as well as a large assortment of other birds. If you're ever out that way, you should plan on spending a few days. The photographic opportunities are great.

Tom
