    Hi

    Catured at Savegre, these beautiful little Hummingbirds are sure to enthral and entertain the visitors as they dart back and forth to the feeding stations
    This is a wild bird. I think it is probably a Grey Tailed but ID is difficult (for me anyway

    Excellent exposure and very detailed and sharp, I like the perch although I wish it was parallel to the sensor. What was the BG?

    This is nice. I like the pose and the colours and feather detail has come out so well. These guys have little feet I see so the perch looks about the right size for it. All in focus perch would be nice but I would not loose any sleep over it.

    I like the pose, details and sharpness. There is some cloning marks at the end of the beak and left side of the perch. Nice image Richard! When were you at the Lodge.
