Finally!
My husband thinks I'm absolutely nuts. I sit in front of the hummingbird feeder everyday, for what must seem like hours to him, in quest of that holy grail of garden photos - the hummingbird shot. Well, it's not perfect, but I was just able to get a few. And it's only the female, who seems friendlier to me than the male but not quite as showy. She's so cute. I love her long tongue. Wonder what I should name her?

LOL I think Jim thinks I am a bit photo crazy myself...I would looooove to catch a hummer! Beautiful shots hon!!! She is lovely!! I ran outside this morning camera in tow at the first sound of Chickadees in the yard.
I adore the horse - giggle...wonderful!!! Sarah
YAY! Watch out, hummingbird photography is seriously addictive!!! I think I needed an intervention last year, lol.
Super cute horsey sign!
Your hummer pics are very good. I too have sat & sat only to delete every shot! You've inspired me to get back out there and try again.
Love the halloween horse. I must get over & see your auctions.
Love the hummers! My sister and I sat and watched hers for quite a while yesterday - it was fun and I snapped a few pictures, too =)
Oooh so beautiful! Your patience really paid off, didn't it? Funny how guys think things are a waste of time unless it is their project. Cute Halloween horse!
I have been lucky photograping the hummers around our place. We have a pair of Anna's and Rufus hummingbirds, do you know what variety yours are? Hard to tell from the female.
Great pictures of the hummingbird! I can never get pictures of them! They move too fast for me!! LOL!
For curious minds, she's a ruby throated hummingbird. The only kind that live east of the Mississippi. Thanks for the comments, I'd love to get a shot of the male.
Hey Jen, long time no see! I love the pics of your hummingbird and yay for the Halloweeeeny stuff!
If girls are crazy, then Boys are silly--even the boy hummingbirds! How could he not want his pic taken? ;)
glad you got a pic finally :) she is such a cute little thing
I love to sit and watch the birds also I have gotten a few good shots
Ohhh! I love those long, little hummingbird tongues too! Your capture is great!! ...and on top of that, Wow!! Your art is gorgeous!! I love all your horses!! :-)
OMG what a wonderful photo...so lucky...my father loved hummingbirds..we have a feeder in front of the front window of the house and loved to watch them with him...TY for a reminder of a wonderful memory...
Smiles,
