Tom Barry Posted August 5, 2017 Share #1 Â Posted August 5, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Ruby is a ruby-throated female who, with her shy mate, visits us every year. She was hovering right in my face - too close to focus - before moving to an overhead branch for this shot today: Ruby at rest by tombarry975, on Flickr Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Barry Posted August 5, 2017 Author Share #2 Â Posted August 5, 2017 I just realized I posted the wrong image, one with purple fringing at the top of the branch. This is the correct one: Ruby at rest by tombarry975, on Flickr Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

North / Northwest Posted August 6, 2017 Share #5 Â Posted August 6, 2017 These little birds fly like jet aircraft. I have many that visit my feeders. You pulled off a really good image. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Barry Posted August 6, 2017 Author Share #6  Posted August 6, 2017 Thanks, Bill. There is a great percentage of misses and near-misses in photographing hummers, especially in flight. I got a really good one this afternoon, but it was with Canon equipment, so not to be shown here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
