Gregg you are so very lucky to have these gorgeous little hummers around. Great colour & clarity, it's a big WOW. I have some hummers but they aren't here yet and my little camera can't get that sharpness like yours.

Gregg, This picture is beautiful. Did you capture this with a EF 70-200 f/4. How did you get so close? Congratulations! This one is one of my favorites.
Wow 1/5000 of a second you must have to raise the ISO a lot to get enough light through the lens !! I've enjoyed all the small birds you've uploaded recently Gregg, & I'm pleased your beloved Hummers have returned too. Seems you could perhaps afford some clever hi speed flash guns .. it could revolutionise your specialist Hummer gallery m8t. :o)

I faved the last one like this, but I think this one has the slight edge on the last, so this one is being fav'd too. Well done, and thank you for sharing!
