Flash Ducking


Hummingbirds are amazingly acrobatic when they want to be. This is a picture of one doing a rapid move to the right to avoid my flash. It was quite a quandry between staying for food and ducking my flash, I'm sure. This is an Anna's Hummingbird, one of the 7 or 8 that have declared my feeder home.

Just figured out that I have both Anna's and Broad tails flitting around my feeder. Pretty cool but boy are they hungry.
