Hummingbirds and Cherry Blossoms

By Andy Cripe

Last year I put out a humming bird feeder just after the cherry tree out back finished blooming.  This year the feeder was out earlier so I could make some photos of the humming birds with the cherry blossoms as a background.  Here are my first attempts:

    Ohh, these are amazing. This little guy loves your camera. Is there some magic photography skill I don’t know about that helped you get these?

    Those are beautiful!! I love them. We have two feeders up now and 8-10 hummingbirds. John fills them and within a day or two they are drained. Fun to watch them. We have a pair of orioles out there now too. They have been drinking the food.
