These two shots were taken a few weeks ago in the Texas hill country. The condo we stayed at had a perfect setup for Hummingbirds. I wish I could of stayed there longer. Thanks for looking.

Good looking shots Brad, I hear Texas has tons of birds. I've never been there myself.

Both shots are absolutely brilliant but the Hummingbird, man, if that was one of mine I'd frame that and put it my wall in a snap - a completely mesmerizing shot.

Thank you Matt, The BG was a golf course green at about 75 yards out.

Thanks Andrew, It's probably my best Hummer in-flight I have so far. I'm still trying out different settings to get better shots.
