A friend of mine works in a camera store. The other day a very
confused looking woman approached the counter and handed my friend
a camera. She said "I took pictures, but I forgot to have film in
the camera. Can you please get them out of the camera for me?"
I've read that they burn an incredible amount of energy hovering as fast as they do. Thats where the sugar water comes in. Hope he was able to recover quickly! Nice job Nancy! C):-)
THE CAMERA'S ONLY JOB is to get out of the way of making photographs. It's entirely an artist's eye, patience, and skill that makes an image. ~Ken Rockwell VISIT MY GALLERY

What a little fluff ball of a baby!! Excellent shot and I'm sure he was humming around in no time. This one gets saved to my personal bird collection, thanks and congrats on such a fine capture!
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Really like this shot, you captured the moment well youve gotta feel sorry for the little fella, good DOF and the darkened background behind the beak makes it stand out. Its in my favourites now.
