A humminmgbird is not easy to photograph with a point-and-shoot camera - a situation where I missed my SLR camera more than ever. Consequently the bird converging the flower of a banana tree just became a distant silhouette in the picture. Looking closely you can vaguely discern the fast flapping wings as a dimmed area on the left and right side of the bird's body.
