Thanks Jim.  As a student of aerodynamics you?d probably enjoy watching 
another species, the Black-chinned Hummingbird, though the viewfinder of the 
?Leica? a7rIII which has a viewfinder with a refresh rate almost perfectly 
synchronized with this species? wingbeats.  It?s like watching the wings 
beat in slo-mo.
