I would love to see a hummingbird maneuvering back and forth (changing directions really fast) in slow motion. It amazes me how quickly they can change directions. It would be really neat seeing how they do can do that :/

I'd love to do that, but don't have a slo-mo camcorder.

This was a visual treat;the commentary was excellent! Thank you so much for sharing!

its because he had a bright red shirt on. The thought he was a big flower :o)

This is wonderful, especially the boy and the hummingbirds. Where in Ohio is this? I must try this. Thanks for the beautiful pictures!

Lake Hope State Park is in southeastern Ohio. It's roughly 25-30 miles east of Chillicothe, and a few miles southeast of Hocking Hills State Park. I tried to put a link to it on Google Maps, but YouTube doesn't seem to allow URLs in comments.

great shots... i just took a few close up photos of my wife doing the same thing here in our front yard... I got some pretty high res photos of her, we must have had 10-15 around at the time.

Kudos to your wife; those are some great shots!

[DMADave]

Thanks. My wife shot the video in the first part (from about 19 - 40 seconds) with one hand while holding the vial in the other. I shot all the stills and the rest of the video and edited it.

Wow - that was great! I just love my hummers and I can't wait to try this. Thanks for posting this great video.

The salsa music you use for the background makes me laugh

[stwalraven]

Can't wait to try this when summer rolls around and the hummers come back! Thank you!
