Very cool, so small and speedy wings too! I saw a big black crow today that was pretty quick too. I had some guys doing work on my property. They left their lunch of McDonald's food on a table. The crow landed, grabbed a french fry and flew off with none of the workers seeing it. But I saw him get away.

Nice video! I love to watch hummingbirds. My parents used to hang a feeder in the doorway of their sunroom, and sometimes the hummingbirds would even explore inside a little.
Ellen, I have this new camera and I was sitting near this feeder and I just had to see if I could capture some footage. They are amazing. Crows are opportunists for sure and you caught them!
Thanks John. That's great about going into your parents' place. I've even known them to hang out looking in a window if the feeder is empty, like they are hoping for a refill.
Thanks Paige. glad this inspired you! Enjoy your feeder and visitors!

Cute little videos like that are why I bought my new Canon EOS 550D camera since it also takes videos.
How cool. Russel has a hummingbird feeder that he's supposed to hang in front of our office window but he hasn't done it yet. I think I need to get on his case.
Hi Gloria I found your blog because I just saw Jim's hummingbird blog. That made my evening, thanks and great filming!!!
Russel, The camera used here is a Panasonic 70x optical zoom SDR-S26. Doug thought it might be helpful with my blogging efforts. Still do not have a nice zoom camera like yours.
Jim, Thanks. It will be nice to see your photos of hummingbirds along with your kitty.
Cynthia, Thanks for stopping! I was amazed it turned out so well. My first attempt at staying still. Great butterfly shot!

Thanks Dave. I did not have to wait long for the birds to appear. I'm sure it is busy at your place too.
