Usually this hummingbird takes seat to refuel but here he's drinking on the fly. Not cropped, just resized to fit Caedes' max. No strobe or multi flash; f4.9 and 1/125th.
Splendid capture, Rick! This seems to be a great year for these little guys. I know I can't wait for them to return. Of course, that means winter will be over too, yay!!
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

~ Great shot Rick! Makes me feel like I'm right there behind him watching the "little dude" drink, lol. Such an interesting angle to get! Shows his beautiful emerald feathers to us too... thanks for sharing!
