I seldom see a hummingbird, and this one is not very colorful. The picture was taken last week on one of our two days it did not rain. About a 50% crop. Thanks for looking.

Look sharp with nice feather details, love the pose with good HA. Also like how the perch ran across the image as well. The tail looks a bit strange though.

Might clone out the fresh cut look of the small branch on the main limb.

Good image, Wendell. Anna's Hummingbird coloration changes incredibly with change in viewing angle/direction of light. They go from an almost black-looking chin as in your image, to stunning metallic red. You handled this well and I like the perch.

It's a very pleasing image and the quality is quite good too! The feather details are very nice. Well done.
