[Leica] Tuesday's Hummers

[cummer at netvigator.com (H&E Cummer)]

Hello Luggers,
Tuesday afternoon is proving to be a spectacularly warm afternoon and the 
hummingbirds have changed their feeding pattern and I can hardly keep up.
I have so many standard feeding pictures that I am now trying to look for 
different aspects. Here are three examples - all taken, this time, with the 
Nikkor
300 f4.0 on the D800E. 1/2000 @ f11 with auto ISO.

Here the bird is approaching the blossom from the bottom - straight up.

And here she is - braking as she approaches the flower:

And lastly, a tribute to the AF - Continuous capabilities of the 300 f4.0, 
here is the little lady
tracked in mid flight - this one is cropped to about half the frame:

I will not be posting pictures over the next few days - house guests are 
arriving - but hope to have some more
special ones later in the week.

Please look large - C&C always welcome.
