December Photo Project 2012 -- Day Eight

Early last Spring I bought a new motion-activated camera to set up outside near the bird feeder to get pictures of the birds eating. I got some pretty good pictures, and posted some on the blog here.

Recently I decided to set up a new hummingbird feeder, one with a big red reservoir that I figured would attract hummers with its color. And I set up the same camera near it. After some tweaking, I managed to get a few good photos.

This one, I think, is one of the best -- or at least the most striking -- so I decided to make it my picture of the day.

I'll post more later.
