This was a little underexposed and noise was a slight issue. Taken on a partially cloudy day with fast moving clouds.

Cropped to a mere 50 MP? I’m rather surprised at the lower part of the body being so blurred given the sharpness of the head and f/8. I’ve seen tail blur often enough in these, but the softness right above the feet seems odd with these shooting parameters.
Hi David, nice sharp head and eye so I say this is a keeper even though the body is quite blurred. I like the background. Good color in the throat - a beautiful bird.
A nice background that complements the hummer. Good detail in the head and nice color throughout.
