Hummingbird Walk

Tonight I went on a walk intent on photographing 

a hummingbird while it fed from this plant 

which we just call our fire-stick flower.

I found other birds

 and it was easy to take their picture.

Even a young one being fed

I even photographed a bee while at it.

All I wanted was an Hummingbird to visit.

Another couple came to watch 

Then one finally came. I had only waited 

about 45 minutes. My arms and hands

 were getting tired holding the camera,

 but it was worth it to me.

I loved this shot with it's wings appearing
 to hold to the stem of the plant while eating.

Now I am hooked and will have to have a few more sessions.
