Flying Backwards - No Problem

Thank you Ted for your comment on my image. Glad you found it and liked it. Roena

Hi Roena Great capture! Great color and motion!

Thanks Lenore. Yes, they make it simple. I wish I was a bird. sigh Except I want to be a eagle that catches up updraft and just floats around in the heavens with out flapping.

They do make it look effortless! What a study in aerodynamics! Love this view. v/f

Love the clarity in this shot - and that you were able to capture this image. Wonderful! v

Thanks so much Rodney. Sit and watch long enough and they will do "something" for you. LOL

Brilliant image Roena!

Thank you for your comment Madeline, but no twig. The hummingbirds just have a very long beak to get deep down in the flowers for nectar.

Roena, this is just so beautiful. I love the twig he is carrying.

Thank you so much Sue. Funny birds!

What a cute capture, Roena!

Thanks so much for your comment Robert. I appreciate it very much.

lots going on here - including great detail vfg

Thank you so much Jeff for your comment on my image. Ro

Awesome work

We have been in the area for 2 months and I never got the urge to try to get any photos not wanting "stuff" in the picture. I came up with the idea to sit near and under the feeder so nothing was in the way. Sitting that close though, makes it hard cause they are moving so fast! Thanks for the comment. Roena

These little creatures are AMAAAAAZZZZZING !!!! This is a great shot !!! Ive been chasing them on thier turf and man they will drive ya nuts :)

Thank you so much Fraida, Georgia, and Karol. I finally took the time to sit and get some images yesterday. LOL

wonderful flight action, Roena! F&V

Hi Ro...what a delightful pose you captured here! :)
