I like the wing position too David and the colors are really nice. Good selective focus on the eye/head. Pretty subject and overall image.

David - this is excellent! Nice back view, head turn, and vibrant colours.
Beautiful image!

Thanks so much for your reply.

A pose you almost never see, David, which is a real bonus for this image. Nice head turn and excellent detail and color.

Cool pose with the head turn and dropped wings. Excellent detail and color rendition. An interesting perch and complementary background. Great shot, David.

Thanks, I appreciate your input….

The wing shape is really neat. Super sharpness in the face and eye. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a hummingbird with a blue tail before - it contrasts so well with the green of the back. Seems to have a somewhat thicker bill than most as well. Great catch.

Great exposure with an unusual pose - well done!
