Day Time Treat

Last night, I thought it was a hummingbird I saw, but it was the giant moth posted below. I am so blessed to be able to work from home. Today, just as I was about to warm up some lunch, I looked out the back window to the patio and noticed this hummingbird hovering over the Penstemon Dark Towers. After quickly running to get the camera, I managed to snap this shot. He was quite shy. Almost as soon as I opened the door, he took his last sip. I hope he comes back so I can be ready this time!
Ahh, this is awesome! Congratulations on getting a picture of a hummingbird! I can never seem to capture them before they zoom away, Thanks for posting this pic! And good luck on future adventures.

Actually, it was my first ever shot of a hummingbird. I managed 3 on this occasion. 2 were trash. Unfortunately, I did not reset my camera from the shot of the moth last night, so I was not able to set the shutter quickly enough to stop the wings. I’ll get him one of these days. Thanks for stopping by.
Awe man… Well thats alright! There will always be another time, another day
Nice photo. I love hummingbirds but rarely see them. I’d love to have a photograph of them – one day I hope if I’m at the right place at the right time.
Thank you. I captured a couple more last week and will be posting them soon.
