Default hummingbird...different type of poses

Hi all,
I was photographing birds last week at my inlaws' house last week and I took several hummingbird shots. It was raining and this guy lit on a far away branch and fluffed his feather. It was very cool to watch and I was excited to catch it on my camera.

I also discovered that this is just about the best my camera can get using the telephoto lens that I have (a cheap $150 lens.) I used a tripod, lower ISO and a faster shutter speed...I still had to sharpen them a bit and this is the best I can get. I'm glad that I experimented with the tripod and all but, I'll be really happy when I can afford the $1799 lens.

Hope you enjoy them anyway!

Blessings,
Lori

Good shots Lori. Not too bad for a $150.00 lense.
