Thanks for the compliment, but, I must confess that I did not take this pic. I found it on the Internet and loved it. However, I do have some pics that I have taken myself, but none are of hummingbirds in flight. I am definitely not a professional photographer! Lol!

True story: We hang hummingbird feeders on our front porch in the summer. A few years ago, we also had a spider who made a rather large web. A hummingbird flew into the web and got stuck. My husband took the bird and used tissues to gently wipe the web off of it. The bird wouldn't fly, so we wondered if maybe it had damaged it's wing when it tried to get out of the web. My husband held one of our feeders up to the bird and it drank. After it stopped drinking, my husband just set it down on the porch and it did eventually fly away. I have several pics that I took throughout the whole process. It was really awesome!
