I've never seen a hummingbird that has landed before. Not once. For some reason I thought they never landed, though I suppose that would make it difficult to sit on a nest. What a lovely little bird this is. |

Thanks Julianne, its certainly a treat for me to be able to get so close to these amazing little birds, not having them around here naturally, its a joy to sit and study its behaviour at the centre. |

WOW..I've never seen a hummingbird in a still picture before, and certainly not one that isn't flapping its wings a rate one can't register, with the naked eye.
Great contrast, sharpnes, DoF and composition.
Very very nice! |

I have never seen a Humming bird in real life, so seeing a photo of one is always fascinating to me. Sorry for maybe asking stupid, but I really don't know this - do they live in the wild in the UK? I agree that the composition is excellent (pretty much as always), and the sharp focus on this little fellow is perfect. Great shot Bev! |
