Thx! I should have written it as "a 1600th" of a second, tho. Writing fractions can be confusing.
Ah, that makes more sense, not that I knew any better, but it just seemed like a faster shutter speed would be needed.
And still, a great shot.
I almost never see hummers in my neck of the woods
My buddy lives in a slightly rural part of the city. His wife would hang these little bags of seed and a humming bird feeder in a tree outside a large picture window. There'd be tons of finches and an occasional humming bird getting sustenance.
Then they got a very active, little Lab. She is noisy and always moving, but ignores the birds and deer as though they don't exist. They apparently don't reciprocate. I no longer see any finches or hummers. I don't think it's coincidental.
The dog is great but I do miss the birds.
