Three Inches of Ego

Thank you Solarrain.

Thank you, David and Trena.

Ahh, Donna, you are such a great supporter of my work. Thank you.

Thank you, Karen.

Thanks Lance. Good to get a comment from you again.

Thank you Steve. I try to verify the identity of all the birds I shoot and upload through authentic bird sites, such as the Cornell University site, and other authorities.

Thank you very much, David.

I don’t think it does get better, Beve. Thank you so much for your comment.

Thank you, Kirk. The challenge for me was to shoot hummers without using the lure of feeders. That was tough to do, but I did get a few good shots like this one.

Thank you, Gail. This is one of my “trophy” shots of hummers. I am glad you like it so much.

Yes, Jesika, St Focus smiled on me as a captured this image. Thank you.

Oh thank you, Anthea. I spent the better part of two days at this site shooting hummingbirds. Because action shots are so hard to get, at first I paid most of my attention to them. But reviewing and evaluating other images, I rated this one very highly.

Thank you for commenting, Malcolm.

Thank you, Pete.

Thank you for your comment KatsEye, and for faving this one.

Thank you, Zumi.

Thank you, Marvin. I was able to get quite close, as you can see.

Thank you, Barry. Yes this is pretty close.

I wanted to show the neck patch, as it is called. Thank you for commenting, Wendi.

Sometimes I come up with good titles :))). Thank you, Kimberly.

Thank you, Jayne. As you can see I have been on a hummingbird kick. I spent days photographing them. This is one of my favs.

Thank you, Svetlana.

Thank you, Mindy.

Well I have to say, without the equipment I use to get pictures like this, there would be no pictures like this from me. Thank you Elaine for all your comments today.

Michelle, hummingbirds are so beautiful, and although they are tiny, they have behaviors that are very similar to eagles, herons, cranes, swans, and other large birds. Thank you for another great comment on my work, Michelle.
