My wife and I travelled to Monterey California over the Christmas Holidays, While we were there we found a spot where the Hummingbirds were plentiful and enjoying a feast of flower nectars, here's a few for your enjoyment.

    We were along the embarcadero right by the boat yards when we captured the above images, what a cool place it is up there.

    Wow, excellent images.
    It is the purpose of life that each of us strives to become actually what he is potentially. We should be obsessed with stretching towards that goal through the world we inhabit.

    Nice shots! Those are hard birds. Check out National Geographic magazine's latest issue, they have a piece on hummingbirds.

    Yes, the first night when we arrived it was really windy, but it cleared up the following day.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
