Fly Away
The hummingbirds in my backyard have finally flown away. They are heading south and over to the coast where it's warmer. Also better habitats with more flowers. I have gone from a high of about fifty hummingbirds down to four. Here are a couple of Anna's images from yesterday and this morning. God bless your weekend, chris
Both images were created with a Canon 7DmkII and a Canon 100-400IS v.1 lens. Camera settings used were AV mode, ISO 800 at F 8.0 shutter speeds varied. The camera was supported on a Manfrotto tripod with a Bogen ballhead.
Gorgeous! Yes, mine have left as well. I have never had that many, must be pretty amazing.
