Boyce Thompson Arboretum 07/08/06.

I think there are approximately 23 images on this page so please wait for them to load.

OOPS, I was to slow, time gap between brain and shutter button is just to slow.

Hand holding the camera doing hummingbird fotos is not good.

What I think I shall do is this; let the flash furnish most all of the light and crank down the f/stop to about f/22 this will eliminate some of the ambient light causing the back ground in some cases to be a bit darker darker, maybe.

So, let's have a look-see.

I do believe these will suit you much better.

Many time I only get the tail of a bird flying out of the photo and I call it a tail shot;
but this time I was to quick and only got the head so, this time I shall call this my hummingbird head shot. :-))

*****************************************************

This bird was not bothered by me taking its photo one bit.

***********************************************************

OOPS, forgot I had the shutter on continous so I got two of the same.

*******************************************

I did not think hummingbirds liked these type flowers.

The bloom may be a Baja Fairy Duster.

IT WAS POSING AND I WAS CLICKING

*************************************************

This is my favorite photo. The bird is rubbing its foot along its bill

*************************************

Now it's rubbing its bill on that branch. A lot of bill rubbing going on.

*************************************

I would guess this image is approximately 2 time the size of the bird.

********************************************

Well, don't you think you taken just about enough photos Earle?

*************************************

So I left it alone and went to another part of the garden to see what if any thing was flying and drinking nectar.
