Β I agree!Β His wings make a pleasant trilling sound when he is in flight, which lets me know when he is around.

Thank you! Β I have found that if you stand fairly near the feeders and have the camera more or less pointed in the right direction you can catch these guys as they hover before feeding. I also find it useful to have the Laws of Averages on my side: if I take lots and lots of pics, one of them is bound to come out pretty good!
