Happy With the Hummingbirds

I spent a couple of sessions with the hummingbirds in the backyard today. Some of them are starting to molt so their wings are missing some flight feathers. Some of them have some weird looking wings. There were both Rufous and Anna's coming to the feeder and the flowers I put out. I had a great time photographing them and they were really happy with the sugar water. Creating images of them is sort of addictive. They are such a beautiful bird. Thank you lord for this day, chris Equipment used- Canon 7D Canon 100-400 IS, (5)Canon 540 EZ flashes set to 1/16th power Camera settings- Manual mode ISO 200, F Stop varied, Shutter Speed 1/200th of a sec.
