It’s always neat to see hummingbirds getting along well enough for several of them to share the feeder. It’s even more fun to watch them when there is a thunderstorm behind them right about sunset. That’s what we have here in this 2 1/2 minute videos. Hummingbirds with some occasional lightning. I hope you like it!

I was taking pictures of the sunset and these guys were vying for position at the hummingbird feeder. I guess they decided to pose for a quick pic!

July 24, 2010 Storm Behind the Feeder

There was a nice storm just north of the apartment and it was kicking up the wind which made for great antics and hummingbirds tried to catch a blowing feeder. The storm also provided a dramatic back drop to the video. The first video is 34 minutes at the feeder boiled down to a still long 9 and a half minutes. Stay through at least the first 2 as a pair of Hooded Orioles come for a drink and their golden rod covering is illuminated by the Sun. Of course, I could watch the whole thing over and over for hours and probably will.

The first video was shot with my FlipUltra in 640×480 resolution. The second video (pending) was shot with my FlipUltra HD. 1280×720 resolution. Enjoy!
