Hummingbirds on Sports Mode

[yourlibrarian]

As we know, hummingbirds are both tiny and speedy and I've found that sports mode is often a necessary camera setting to catch their movements. Thought others might like to see a few seconds of wing beats.





Especially in the last 2 pics I think one can see how their wings rotate in each flap.

The wings look like little propellers in those photos! I don't think I've ever seen that before. P.
