This female Ruby Throated Hummingbird also appears to have clear wings, but this is the bird, not a moth. I took this at my friend Alice's house in Deer Lodge, Tennessee. I went to spend the day with her Tuesday because I had not seen her in 5 years. Her husband asked me how many Hummingbirds I killed....he said I had been shooting them all day. I hate to admit it, but I did take a lot of photographs, and this is the only one this good straight out of the camera, no cropping to this photograph.
I started going to Alice's house 25 years ago, so I am not sure when, but I photographed my first hummingbirds sitting in almost the same exact spot as I was when I took this one. First Hummingbird I ever saw was right there too.

Just stunning!
Well--my, my---I've never seen one with clear wings... SO pretty. We finally have a FEW hummers up here --but not nearly as many as we usually have.

Love It!!!
Amazing photo, as always.
I love this picture. I just put up a hummingbird feeder. Those birds are fast. They zoom in and zoom away.
Leedra,
What a fantastic shot of this humming bird..they are quite a challenge to capture..but you did a great job!! This is definitely a framer!! Such detail and those clear like wings..wow!!
Your friend Alice must have a very hummingbird friendly garden. And please don't 'shoot' anymore hummers:)
She is gorgeous. This is an amazing photo. Great capture. This would make a beautiful picture to hang on the wall, because of the clarity of the photo.
A truly wonderful image Leedra. Thanks for sharing it. I have never seen a hummingbird except in photos and on nature shoes.
Perfect shot..right out of the box!!
What a wonderful action shot of this amazing little hummingbird, Leedra
