Fellow Active Rainer Brad Andersohn just wrote a blog about wanting to catch a hummingbird in flight. Well, while I have caught some hummingbirds in flight and indeed it was a thrill, I would rather be able to say I have sold a million dollar home, which I am sure Brad being in California can say he has done many times over (Congrats Brad!!)
While I was waiting at a home for my buyer to show up, the hummingbird feeder by the front door caught my attention. I grabbed my camera and walked toward the hummingbirds that were around it. Brad was right that they are extremely fast. However, these photos were taken after they had taken off and I found an observation point where I could go undetected. One returned and these were just some of the shots I got.
Sure enough the hummingbirds came back to this Baldwin Kansas Real Estate listing that I was about to show and these photos are the result. It helped a lot to have the hummingbird feeder to attract the bird. It also helps to have the perfect home to attract the buyer. Oh, and yes, I made the sale!
You just never know what lies in store for you when you go to show a home to a buyer but this was quite the treat.
Thanks and "Don't keep me a secret--I'm never too busy for your referrals!"

Rob,
Hummingbirds! You gotta love them! Was is Seals and Crofts who had that great song?
Lucky :)
(Lyrics by James Seals; music by James Seals & Dash Crofts, 1971)
Oh hummingbird, mankind was waiting for you to come flying along.
Heavenly songbird, we were so wrong. We've harmed you.
Oh hummingbird, lend us your wings. Let us soar in the atmosphere of Abha.
Lift us up to the heaven of holiness, oh source of our being, oh hummingbird.
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away.
In you I've found a fragrance. I'll love you 'til I die.
I just love you, love you, love you. I don't even know the reason why.
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away.
The sweetness of your nectar has drawn me like a fly.
I just love you, love you, love you. I don't even know the reason why. Now,
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away.
Haven't you noticed the days somehow keep getting longer?
And the spirit voices whisper in us all.
Haven't you noticed the rays? The spirit sun in stronger
And a new day is dawning for us all.
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away.
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away.
The draught of understanding; wisdom, peace and love is ours.
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away.
