Good pose and composition colours look good. I may have been tempted to lower the highlights on the twig.
Hi Kurt ... lovely shot and well timed love it .
Color and tones looking very nice for the most part ... î am struggling a bit with the sharpness and /or the HL in the feathers , as they do appear quite sharp if not over sharp ???!!!
But difficult to " judge " for me as I have never processed a hummingbird .... the structure might be that way .

NIce detaila here Kurt, and I like the implied motion of the curving body twisting away. Nice iridescence as well with that direct light.
