Excellent shots! We don't often see hummingbirds up here (I've only photographed one in the wild and it's blurry!), so I am very envious.

It won't be long before I can park myself right under it and get some great close-ups. There are others who visit the yard, so I'm considering getting another feeder or two. http://www.flickriver.com/photos/walt_gilbert/sets/72157630955110246/ Taken with my K20D fitted with the Promaster 70-300 f/4-5.6 And, yes, I've been told not to use the nectar with the red dye, so I'll go to plain simple syrup when this nectar runs out. I just assumed that, being labeled as "hummingbird nectar" it was OK to use for hummingbird nectar.
