Actually I didn’t hear that but I just took these photos and I want to show them to you all. This hummingbird is my photo nemesis. I’ve spent hours trying to capture it, and almost never get good shots. I’m proud of these. And by that I mean I laid on my back on concrete for an hour to get them. Also, bonus shots of C7 exhaust and a frickin’ awesome frog. This post has something for everyone. If you don’t like hummingbirds, frogs, or C7 exhaust, I just don’t get you, bro.

^Especially happy with this shot. Raw, ISO 800, 200mm, f/5.6, 1/4000

^Also very happy with this shot. Lighting could be better but whatever.

DOUBLE BONUS SWEET ASS FROG:

Interesting note- I believe this is a Gray’s Tree Frog, and when I first saw it and went out to take pics it was totally grey, with almost no markings. As I put some light on it and started taking pics, it slowly turned bright green with black markings. Unfortunately, it was extremely humid outside, and every picture I took while it was grey didn’t come out right due to my lens fogging up. Meh. Anyways, TLDR, frog changed color, was sweet.
