Hummer Finger Training
« on: May 17, 2015, 06:38:45 AM »
1st off this is not a sport for the faint of heart. You need nevers of steel and a ton of patience. :chuckle:

I find it hard to believe I've been doing this for a number of years now and I still get a kick out of it. You do need a lot of patience letting the little birds get use to you hanging around their  feeders but after awhile they get use to me and start landing on my fingers. I think my arm that hold the Kodak z812 gets the most workout just trying to hold it up so that when it happens I can try for the shot.

Hummers are quite fearless I had one that would land next to me on my deck no food involved was just my little garden friend.

Only 2 defining forces sacrificed themselves for you:
The American Soldier and Jesus Christ. One died for your freedom, the other for your soul.

My rock,
He trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.

My Daughter tried it this weekend, a lot of fun.
