Yesterday I finally caught this little guy (or gal). I had been staking out the hummingbird feeder off and on most of the day and unsuccessfully for the last week or so. This pic was shot handheld at 1/1000 sec.
This is a most unusual flight attitude for the hummer. Speaking as a former member of the University of Texas varsity springboard diving team, it looks like the bird is initiating a reverse 2 1/2 somersault! I could execute the maneuver but never with such precision! :clap:
