One day I will get a video of these lightning fast tiny hummingbirds so you can hear for yourself their sound. An amazing bird to say the least. They are so tiny and will fly across the yard so quickly you can barely see them. I managed to get one photo while he was still for only a few seconds. Then he was off again to my flowers in the garden. They are not only entertaining to watch but their humming sound is like a tiny helicopter. Nature is amazing, as I always say.

Love both shots, especially the 2nd….very nice 🙂
Thanks and I know you see hummingbirds.
I just do not know the beautiful birds if I’ve seen it in the natural environment
There is so much to see in nature.
Sorry I missed this one my friend. We get them around our house too. My mom can almost touch them. It is amazing!
No problem. I love seeing and getting close to them.
I am delighted with photos of this little beautiful bird. I’m a little jealous of you.
Only my sparrows and blue tit and green-yellow tit come to my bird home.
Although they are beautiful too. When a strong winter blue tit to take food from my hand.. At a second, but it’s a wonderful feeling.
Thank you Robin. Don’t be jealous. You have things around you that I don’t, I will share the beauty. Wow that is cool to feed the bird from your hand. I have seen others do this with hummingbirds. That is how I feel when a butterfly lands on me, only a few seconds but I will remember it forever.
Thank you, Carol, you’re really a wonderful and good person.
You are very kind for saying that.
Video pls !!!
Hmm… they really attracted to red?
Yes they really are attracted to red. If I go on the deck with a red shirt they come to me but then fly away. That is why most feeders are red.
I’d try one day (wear red) if the hummingbirds decide to come visit again…
I will and try to get a video as well.
Wonderful pictures …. I waiting to see the video
Working on it, thank you.
It takes a lot of patience with these tiny birds.
The pictures are magnificent. I’ll wait for a video to hear their voices.
Thank you, I am working on it, I hope they will cooperate.
You know I’ve never seen tiny hummingbirds directly, more over heard their voices. I am waiting for the video you will get, Carol!!!
I know and I so wish you could visit and see mine in my yard! Wouldn’t that be so cool for your family to come way over here to visit. I am still working on the video. You have to be real sneaky to even get a photo of these little ones. But I will not give up on the video.
Ooo… I wish I could, Carol.
I’m sure you will succeed in making that video.
Thanks for the vote of confidence.
