A hummingbird’s brain
makes up around 4%
of its body weight.

BIRDSHummingbirds are creatures of habit and
they make their rounds from flower to flower. Once I’ve
figured out their pattern, I begin timing and listening for
them, which allows me to get prepared and set for each
round. Typically, I start photographing them when they
reach 15-minute routine intervals. I use my Canon with
a 400mm prime lens at a 10-foot focal length.
