Description
I was able to captured about 10 photographs of this hummingbird before he flitted away. About 4 or 5 of them were good or interesting to me in some way. This is a pretty high ration, but I was prepared; I had seem him around that area, and they tend to come back. And the light was good so that I could increase my shutter speed.
In this photo, I love the iridescent green on his back, his wings in motion sustaining him in position before the flower, and his head a bit sidewise sucking up that nectar! I also really love the foliage behind him which became this abstract blur of orange and green.

I love taking multiple photos of a bird or animal, because you capture a series of moments that display a behavior pattern.
