These are hummingbirds from primarily my backyard but there are a few from other parts of Texas as well. They are all ruby throated hummingbirds with just a few images of a black-chinned hummingbird and a buff-bellied hummingbird.

Stephen > This female hummingbird is investigating the lantana in my backyard.  The lantana is very popular with the hummingbirds.  Midlothian, Texas, August 2008
Stephen > I took this picture as this ruby throated hummingbird was making its way around the lantana.  When I took the picture my flash had not had enough time to recycle so it came out very dark.  I had to increase the exposure in RAW about a stop and a quarter and then use some shadows and highlights to bring out the detail.  I wish I could have achieved better eye contact but the overall composition, color and the mid-air pose are pleasing to me so I included it in the gallery.  Midlothian, Texas, August 2008
Stephen > Not liking the fact that several other hummingbirds, a juvenile male and a couple of females, are trying to take advantage of "his" feeder, this male gives them "the look." Midlothian, Texas, August 2009
Stephen > This male ruby throated hummingbird was showing off its red gorget and cleaning its tongue just after sipping sugar water from one of my feeders.  Midlothian, Texas, August 2009
