Just after a rainstorm. Perch placed near a feeder (as you can tell by the cut end of branch). Image is cropped.

Very nice detail on the hummer, nice background. I'm guessing based on your comment that the LRC red tint is from the feeder? A little head turn would have made this even better.

Very nice pose and details, BG is killer, would clone the OOF red patch in LRC.

The bird looks super sharp with a beautiful and colorful side view. lovely BG as well.
I'm not crazy with the squre format and the bird is too centered (for that scene)

Beautiful crisp shot, wonderful exposure, I think a little more off the bottom would
make this a stronger composition. A little too centered, but a great capture.

Thank you for the critiques. The red patch is a blooming Crape Myrtle.
