Of the 338 hummingbird species in the world, 18 are commonly seen in the United States. These spend the winter in Central America and breed in the United States and Canada.

Most hummingbirds are only 3 to 4 inches long. Hummingbirds generally weigh between one tenth and one quarter of an ounce. These little flying jewels are always popular in gardens and yards, and their readiness to visit hummingbird feeders makes them a popular subject for bird watchers and photographers alike.

Tips for Better Hummingbird Photos and Videos with a Wingscapes BirdCam

Shoot All Day - Hummingbirds feed from early morning until well into the evening. They visit hummingbird feeders repeatedly throughout the day. Leaving the BirdCam set up all day will ensure you capture hummingbird pictures in the best light.
Setup is Key - Position the BirdCam so that it is either level or slightly higher than the hummingbird feeder. This should give you good color of the hummingbird's iridescent feathers.
Get Close - Place the Wingscapes BirdCam close to the hummingbird feeder to maximize the detail captured in the image.
