Adult female Ruby-Throated Hummingbird enjoys a “big gulp” from feeder…

A lot of patience and skill went into capturing this female Ruby-Throated Hummingbird.

The photographer saved just 2 out of 500 shots. This busy little hummer was a bundle of energy, and finally came to rest on the feeder..

She’s quick…
I’m determined……
and wasting a whole lot of time!!!!!

I should add that I have taken about 500 pictures of this little girl….I have deleted 498!!!
