Its is a very nice capture here of both the flowers and the beautiful humming bird. Great capture and you should try to sell this to some bird organization.

This is a great capture of the little humming bird. Wonderful focus and dof. The vibrant pink flowers just pop off the page. That purple tag is intriguing - I wonder what the story is?

The colors are so vivid and the humbird is caught perfectly. I especiall like the purple pedal on his foot, also the speckle of pollen on his beak. thanks.

I think that somehow it has been ringed or tagged because just above the blue thing there is a dark ridge which is not on the other foot. Your photo has a good composition giving us a good look at the scene. Your shot is very sharp and very well exposed. It has just enough blur on the wings to provide a sense of motion. Very good photo, well done!

I never tire of seeing hummingbirds.
Like seeing this one getting some nourishment, her long beak in full view, and the blur her wings make in their motion.
Pretty colors of flowers, bird and backround.
Good focus.
The composition is nice with different levels of flowers and where the bird is placed.
nice light.

Yes, excellent capture here. Bet you needed that 1000sec. I like the way you let the wings show some motion. Most do not. Excellent composition and DOF.
Kudos.

Stunning shot! background nicely blurred, leaving the focus well on the bird and flowers. Great contrast and color as well. And, the framing is wonderful.

Wow, great shot Willie, love the fact that you caught the little guy drinking and yet his wings are still a bit faster that the shutter speed, quick little guys...nice colors on the flower and the blurred background is very pleasant...great work!

This is stunning the way you caught this beautiful little hummingbird like this. I like the way the wings just seem to be standing still. I like the way you left all the flowers in the picture. An excellent picture. Did you ever find out what was on her foot? I hope that it will not hurt her.
