Hummingbird Close-ups

Since 'Flash' has been pretty consistent with where he likes to perch, I spent a bit of time last Monday with our larger lens to get some close-ups.

Lovely closeups, Margy. Did you get them and the video by knowing a favorite perch and setting the camera up on that spot? I've been gathering Hummingbird footage for the last 2-3 weeks, and this is better than anything I've gotten, except at feeders (though I know his favorite flowers and have gotten some good shots of him gathering nectar).
