Hello Jane,
WOW, I don't think I have ever seen a resting hummer. Beautifully captured my dear. We will be coming dangerously close to you soon.

Hi Jane,

If there have been a lot of these around then your camera must have worked overtime. What a lovely bird well captured in this image with good colour and composition. The bird and the branch that it is on are nice and sharp with the OOF background. Great.

Hello Jane,

Beautiful composition. Excellent focus and DOF. I like the POV which allows to see almost the whole back of the bird and its beautiful colour. Excellent light and colours.
Cheers,
Mariki

Hello Jane,
What a beauty! The colours are amazing! The green on the body and leaves are very harmonious. The blacks and whites great contrasts. The pose, sharpness and BG are wonderful. For me, high quality!
Kind regards,

Hi Jane

Great shot of this lovely humming bird - the only thing I am seeing loads of at the moment are dragonflies, which seem to be everywhere this year! Great pose and detail.

Hello Jane,
Nice quote from West Side Story matches the beauty of this great capture of a female Anna's Hummingbird. The sheen on her back is great with fine nearly total sharpness from what is otherwise not an easy POV, but she posed for you so well and you took the opportunity with both hands.
A really delightful shot Jane,
And thanks for sharing it,
Ivan
