Beautiful photo of this hummingbird and purple flower filled with pollen that this tiny bird loves.
The wings and tail tips are not completely included in this good presentation.

A little difficult with a hummingbird as they flit from flower to flower; one has to grab the shot when you can!

Comment from Devonte Baker
This photograph is so beautiful! I love how you captured this bird looks like drinking or eating the stuff in this flower. You captured it in mid action which is awesome in itself! Thank you for sharing, wonderfully done!

Comment from CREZart
Michele, I loved seeing all the hummingbirds in Costa Rica. They are beautiful as is the country. You have captured his eye with good clarity and overall a very good job. My only suggestion would be since the sides are tight on the bird and flower that a little cropped from the top or the bottom would improve the balance. Making the narrowness less noticeable. I like the nicely blurred background also :)

Great shot, Michele. I like the angle and focus showing the eye of the humming bird and the wingspan. The blossom looks so lovely and the overall scene is so colorful.
