Anna's hummingbirds in Quintana Today

[dalepa]

Tried my hand at some smaller birds today in Quintana's Neotropical Bird Sanctuary. Lots of work getting these fast moving birds, but worth the effort.

Nice Shots!

Good thing you didn't go there yesterday. I went, and it was a freezing, rainy disaster. I took 2 whole shots after a 90 mile drive.

Looks like I should have waited until today

Very nice shots Dan...great focus and details with nice colors...were you using a tele-converter on your 300mm lens?

Magic! You sure picked the day for shooting. Those guys zip around so much, you must be really stoked.

You did real good on these, Dan. It was nice to shoot with you again.

Yea, the canon 2x... Works great with a few setting changes. I'm hearing that stacking an off brand 1.4x with the canon 1.4x may work better than just the 2x.

Great photo! Fat little bird most of the ones that I see are slim.
