    Those are good...hummers are extremely hard to capture. I for one have yet to attempt it, although we have them in abundance in our backyard. You've done well here!

    Beautiful images...I wonder if there are hummingbirds in Illinois. The only hummers here belong to the yuppies and are seldom used for off-roading.

    Keep the hummer images coming!!!

    Great shots, Pete! The only hummers I see around here have 4 wheels and want to run over you!

    Thanks Leigh, if you have them in abundance in your backyard you should try and get in some shots. You will feel great when you get that first sharp one.

    Thanks Frank, I would think there would be Hummingbirds in Illinois. I know about the four wheel ones, would like to have one.

    Thanks Don. You got to be fast to dodge the 4 wheels. You can bet the hummingbirds are fast also. lol

    Thanks Bryan, it took a few hundred shots to finally get down a set up for taking them. I still take quite a few before I get a keeper. It's a challenge and it's fun.
