Graceful wings!

The happy hummingbird spread its wings just as I snapped the picture. I was really pleased with the result. I have been experimenting with the settings on my camera, trying to get the best shutter speed for birds in flight or animals on the move. It is a challenge, but this time it worked.

This is a backblip from earlier this week. I am gradually getting caught up. Of course, the challenge is to stay there and not fall behind again. Wish me good luck!

Today's extra pictures include another of the hummmer and a goldfinch duo showing their Autumn colors.
