Intense Eater

I had a few minutes before I had to shuffle off to work this morning. I decided to sit still by the window and try to grab a good hummingbird photo or two.

This is a male ruby-throated hummingbird intent on downing his breakfast. I love the way the low angle of the sun strikes and highlights the tiny feathers.

This is one of three good images I captured in this 15 minute setting. I’ll post the others soon, so check back.

Feel free to share this image with friends.
