This morning I spent some quality time with the hummingbirds in my yard.  
Having set up a couple of feeders I had a pretty good idea where the 
hummingbirds would be ;) so at dawn I just sat and waited for the action to 
begin.  My favorite poto of the day:

technical stuff: R8/DMR, 280mm f/4 APO (a.k.a. my Precious) near minimum 
focus distance, tripod.  Crop from horizontal.

all comments welcome.
