How phenomenal all of these are. The birds move so fast, and yet every photo is sharp and clear w/out any blur.

Fantastic!



Thank you.

Many years ago with an old fashioned film camera we had a hummingbird feeder and spouse would sit on a short ladder for a long time to catch one diving.

The one with the tongue sticking out is really a marvel.
