Hummingbird

I went on a walk at the Cosumnes River Preserve about a month ago. Then I came back to the visitor center to watch the hummingbirds. Just as I lined up a shot of one sipping at the feeder, another dive bombed it and this is what was in my shot as I clicked the shutter.
I got really, really lucky. :)



Beautiful creature!
This is an incredible capture.
Wonderful shot! Reminds me of the song “Hummingbird” by Wilco.
Great picture!
Whoa! That’s neat. Shooting on the fly now :)
Wow, you are very lucky to have gotten this picture. Hummingbirds are so beautiful and it is so neat to watch them “hover”. I used to have a feeder on my patio and they’d come right up to the window.
Thank you for visiting, Minkydo! Yup, absolutely enchanting. :)
Thanks Rayne. I definitely got very lucky :)
Hi Meg! I don’t know that song, but I’m glad you like the picture. :)
Thank you Patty!
*grin* @ Ling Indeed!
Wow. Great shot!
As an amateur photographer, (yes, I like to remember my trips too) I can appreciate this picture of the humming bird, because I can see the wings pretty clearly in the photograph.
The pictures I’ve taken have more or less always shown the wings as a blur.
Great picture of a beautiful little creature. Dave
Wow, nice pic. Way to go!

Thank you Karen! I definitely lucked out–this was not the shot I was trying to get :)
Thanks Dave. :) Sometimes the planets/lens align *grin*
Thanks Katster! :)
