Hummingbirds


Recommended Posts

This was a pleasant surprise. I was actually pretty bummed because I haven't taken any bird photos the summer. I've kept the hummingbird feeders fresh all summer but haven't even had much time to enjoy them. Last week, after a stressful day I sat on my front porch with one of the feeders just a few feet away and one of the hummingbirds came and sat right in front of me for a little while. Made my day.

This is with a Canon R5 and my Sigma 150-600mm lens at 600mm f/8. I have a medium sized Macro extension tube on this lens to improve its ability to focus close. Shutter is 1/250th because I am using which was off camera to the right.
