The Hummingbird Accident

[chrisflees]

I was actually shooting something else when this thing kept flying past my head making a loud buzzing noise. I swatted at it and it stopped about two minutes later I heard the same buzzing noise and looked in front of me and there it was. The buzzing noise was from a hummingbird trying to get to the flowers I was standing right next too. For the first time and purely by accident I had the camera set fast and was actually able to capture an image of this rather elusive bird.
