2. Thanks for the pingback. There were hummingbirds around that time last summer too but never got a pic. Glad you did.

   1. you are welcome and yea it took awhile and persistance but I did.. finally 🙂 and what a perfect way to show it too

3. Thanks for the pingback. Great catch on the hummingbird!

   1. thank you! and you are welcoe too… I finally got the little guy. I actually got a bunch. it was a task tho..

4. But as fleeting as it is, it still manages to hover a bit in one spot…

   Great to see you on the air!

   1. thank you – it may be fleeting but I felt the need show up for a while… this damn bird should be a mocking bird – and it does hover an instand usually long enough for me to get my camera on then bye bye… if I don;t have my camera..it will sit on the branch of the tree… I have seen it sit for up to five minutes .. yesterday I got dive bombed cause I needed to reill the feeder.. but they are fun.

5. This is cool! Also, your blog title is funny. I like it! 🙂

   1. thank you …it was a bit of an accident but worked perfect 🙂

      1. My pleasure! 🙂

6. Hummingbirds are my favorite! I have a feeder here, but they are scarce right now. It’s cold and rainy. They love the warm/hot weather like I do. I’ve missed you Lizzie, so great to see you back.

   1. Ive missed you too Gail ♥ I am getting there.. did yo usee the post on Artsy Brain Fartsies? “to catch a hummingbird” ? it;s got a bunch of them… here is t the link ..http://lizziecracked.wordpress.com/2013/06/13/hummingbird/ they are here I guess its hot and dry and – they mock me but I finally got some good pics 🙂

      1. I went to the link! They’re wonderful and fast…too fast for the naked eye, I wonder if I would need a tripod ❤

      2. I think I might have got a cleearer pic with a tripod, although I put my camera on burst so once I staeted taking pics.. .I threw out about five for every one I kept… try it. It took me about a month of forgetting to bring my camera and watching them watch me… but it was worth it. We have a nest in the tree I think now too 🙂

      3. Awww a nest. Wow. One of my fondest memories as a child was birdwatching out of the bay window, but I never had humming birds to watch. Maybe if I sit on the patio with my camera…I have burst too! Now I’m ready for the sunshine this weekend, Thanks love!
