With hummers it is ALL luck. If they sit still,or hover in the same spot for a few seconds, and if I am 20 feet or so away from them, I can generally stop them. But, after a while, that's pretty boring. Did you see the ones where they were fighting mid air? or the one where he was yawning and you can see his huge tongue? Those, to me, were more interesting. Incidentally, the hummer is not often drawn to thhe daylily. I think in this case he was looking for a drink. Did you see the dew drops on the petals of the daylily? For those who may not have seen it, here is a crop of one of the shots you're talking about.
