Late yesterday I was out on the deck taking sunset photos. I noticed the hummingbirds kept visited the feeders. They are also on the deck.
I managed to get a few shots but due to the lighting, they are more like silhouettes of these tiny birds.
You can almost see a sunset reflection in the feeder as well.
Still thought I would share with you. They will be leaving soon for their migration.

That is a very good pc. They are so fast. I think I actually saw one outside the other day, but I told roomie they are probably heading south soon.

That's good anyway. Silhouette is another art of taking photo.

@CarolDM I sometimes take silhouette photo especially late in the afternoon when the sun sets.
