Calliope Hummingbird

I realized today that I could set my camera to manual, put it on proper settings for a good exposure, put the camera on a tripod, then study for my EPPP exam. Every time I heard whirring wings I could reach up, press the shutter release and take pictures. I was able to kill two birds with one stone today. I got a lot of studying done and some nice pics like this one. :)
