Very nicely done Scott.    Catching hummingbirds in flight is no small feat so great job.

Great capture there.  Did you consider doing 8xSloMo ?

It was connected to the Mimo app with the wireless attachment, so 8X wasn't available...

Thank you, we have 3 feeders with birds on them all day.  They didn't mind the Pocket 2 or the tripod!

Fun to watch throughout the day, especially from inside, when it is over 100 F outside!

That's hotter than it ever gets in the UK, although we did get into the 40's (Celsius) where we lived in France. There, in the summer we had humming-bird hawk moths (Papillon colibri) on the buddleia flowers.

My pleasure    They are becoming more common in northern Europe with global warming, and are sometimes seen in the south of the UK now.   They're very difficult to film.  I used a Canon Powershot Pro 1 digital camera. That was about seven years ago.
