My Favorite Hummingbird Photos – normally I always have 4 hummingbirds visiting my place. This year I have only see 2. I did not get a chance to photograph them this year and they are gone already. So, here are a few of last years photos.

    1. Yes, I have not seen one in a couple of weeks and yesterday 2 showed up. They must be the stragglers falling behind.

      1. I was surprised to read on my local Wild Birds Unlimited page I follow on Facebook, that our hummingbirds are getting ready to leave, so to ensure your feeders are filled … I think it’s a bit early for ours though (especially since it is stinkin’ hot today).

    1. Thank you Kellye, I have flowers and a feeder on my porch and they fly right next to me sometimes, especially if I have a red hat on. They get used to me after awhile. That is what I love about bird photography. You have to just get out there with them and sit patiently.

  12. I love hummingbirds and I confess I feel that way about most nature, LOL. I admire so much the close up pictures you share.

    1. Hello David, hope you are doing well. I check your blog weekly to see if you are writing again. Praying you are healthy and doing well. Yes it is hard not to like pretty much all animals. 😊

  13. Can you tell if any are regular visitors? Have you named them? My daughter would name the hummies she saw out our window. After a while, you could actually tell them apart. Pudge was her favorite.

    1. I have one that I recognize, it has a whitish spot behind its right eye. Otherwise I have not been able to tell the others apart. I only get 4 every year. I can’t imagine the feeders where they show dozens of them flying around. It would be cool to see though.

      1. We will sometimes have 8-10 buzzing between our three feeders. And one poor bird trying to defend all of them at the same time.

  14. Your photos are exquisite, Sandra. I love the hummingbirds so much. I often work outside on my patio, and the hummingbirds hover in front of my face while I talk to them.

    1. Thank you very much Mary, I do the same thing. I sit on my porch and talk to them. They are such a beautiful little bird.

  17. Absolutely STUNNING, Sandra!!! I KNOW what it takes to photograph these birds! Yours are spectacular! I actually have pictures of hummingbirds up today and they are not as great as yours. Wow!! Spectacular captures!!

    1. Thank you so much Amy. Yes, it is difficult isn’t it. I throw a lot of photos away trying to get that one good one. They are so fast. Have a wonderful day Amy, 😊

  21. Beautiful Sandra, the way you managed to freeze these moments. It makes sense that these photos are among your favourites. Nice work (as always by the way).
    Greetings and have a nice day.

    1. Thank you very much Rudi, yes it takes a lot of photos to get that one good one. Plus a lot of time sitting near them for the close up.

I am a traveling photographer, I like to travel rural America, the roads less traveled when I can. I love the great outdoors, my Photo Galleries contain Landscapes, wild life and a few just for fun photos. Thank you and have a great day.
