Yesterday was a fantastic day for multiple reasons.
Warm to hot, clear sky, next to no wind, the bay and Coastal ocean like a rolling meadow, and we were in the boat to enjoy it.
The dolphins were enjoying it as well, love was in the water. I had the 150-600 which was way to much for most of the possible dolphin jumps.
I did catch a couple.

This is the first

"Thinking of Fall"

Ruby-throated Hummingbird
Milford De 9-9-24

For the photographically inclined
The image was captured at 6:30PM as the light is changing or has changed.
The hummer is in the shade and 14' from my camera body. The background is a Plum tree 30' behind the subject and the yellow patches are openings in the tree where the camera can see the dried grass on a hillside another 50+ yards away.
The Plum tree and the hillside are in bright late afternoon sun.

Photo captured with a Canon 7dii and Tamron 150-600 g2 600mm.
F8, Iso 1250, 1/320

Ruby-throated Hummingbird and Hibiscus bud.

I almost feel guilty spending so much time focused on the Hummingbird. But then, They will be heading South soon and the opportunity will be lost until next May.

Ruby-throated Hummingbird, Milford De. 9/3 -9/4/24

Our Hummingbird population is changing. 2 weeks ago there were dozens. Now those birds seem to have started working their way South and a new group of 6-8 have moved in. or are just visiting to load up before heading South.
This "youngster" has claimed The Perch and just barely tolerates me and my camera.

Ruby-throated Hummingbird.
I generally avoid, or try to avoid capturing a feeder in a picture. However, this young male was happy to sit for me about at close as my lens can focus. It was a good opportunity to see how much detail I could capture with a "stationary" subject 7'
