Never see these where I live, so it is great to watch one :)

Thanks!

They are around here most of the year. I think the day I made this video, was one of the last days before they migrated south. I haven't seen them since that week.

wow, hummingbirds are so cool. even in slow-mo, the wings beat in a blur!

[NewYorkGardener]

I agree!

There really is not much slow motion when it comes to hummingbirds. lol

Tahnks for watching!

Wow that is so neat! The music is perfect too, you didnt by chance do it yourself?

As for this "Show me your best thing" I hope you will go watch each one and tell them what you think. I will be encouraging everyone to do this. As a way of making new connections :O)

The music is from YouTube's audio swap, music details listed in audio info under the video.

Glad to watch the other vidoes!

Thanks for this video concept, a great idea.

Humming Birds are amazing creatures. I've never seen one in real person. I know some people who have humming bird feeders. I'm thinking about getting a humming bird feeder.

Very nice. I tried capturing a hummingbird that was out my front kitchen window, feasting on my morning glories. I had know ideal I had such a vistor in my garden. LOL! Tried to get some pics from the window. Guess I was spotted. He did a sideways fly by outside the window and gone. :(

Wonderful to see that wildlife still thrives in such a populous area of the world. They look a lot like birds here we call 'honey-eaters', no idea of the scientific name.
