well-structured information in a pleasant pace - thank you
Thanks so much! We tried to keep this bite sized. I appreciate your feedback. ❤
@@CliffKajun You did a good job. Looking forward to more good content.
Thank you for you video. The post and arm you used to hang the feeder is a wonderful idea. What are they called? 😊
Thank you for watching. :) I'm sorry I haven't checked our CZcams lately for new comments, but if you are still wondering, we used a C-Stand and Cliff rigged it to attach the feeder. Use what you own haha! In our case, camera equipment. Just be sure to use a sandbag to weigh the bottom down for safety! 😅 They're great for this because you can move it to keep it in direct sun while you're shooting. Arnie didn't seem to mind me moving it; he kept coming back to me which I found so precious. He was not camera or human shy at all!
Beautiful! They are so hard to photograph. My best shots so far were hand held but brilliant tips for shooting on tripod. ❤️
I saw your photos on Instagram. Lovely! I've tried waiting for Arnie to land, but he perches high in our palm trees and my 70-200 can't reach that far! lol. I did get lucky a few days ago and found a tree low enough he happened to land on, but I was waiting for him for at least 15-20 minutes before he flew to the place I was set up lol. It's time consuming so I just wait by our feeder. 😅
@@CliffKajun thank you! I’m a stalker. During season I have camera ready at the back door. I will go out with it around my neck. Once they calm down because I’ve come out I usually just hang out on my patio ready to shoot in about four different locations. Arnie probably has a favorite lookout, ours have their designated spots so I have marked them, and know where to look. I will admit I have a lot of hummingbird tail feather photos. 😂
Too bad I'm not in the country side to put this to practice..
At least I have an idea what to do now..
Awesome helpful tip
Aww, these birds hang in the city too! They are attracted to yards with bright orange and red flowers. 😉 We have one in LA at a friend's house literally walking distance from downtown! Just get a feeder and you might attract one.
Hummingbirds are awesome! But they can also be extremely mean to other humming birds, they will fight it out without questions asked.
You are so right! That definitely sounds like Arnie! There is a Rufous that comes along that I rarely get to see before Arnie chases him off 😅
