Kinda cool shot with the hummer lit by the sun shining through the red water of the feeder

Im able to get decent shots when the light is correct for my setup. usually before 10:00 am and after 3:00 pm

I place my dining room chair about 5 Ft in front of my very clean picture window and the feeder is just outside about 4 Ft from the window, this gives enough distance to keep the hummers calm if I dont move much!

Well if you cheat then so do I, or used to anyways. I had a pop up blind that I'd sit in before one of the fiberglass poles broke on it.

The hummingbirds you get appear to be much more cooperative than the ones we get here. They always get into fights here and immediately try to chase one another off.

Thanks for sharing your set up!
