Wow! Jane!
You've hit the jackpot here!
This is not only one of your best shots, but one of the best images of a sitting hummingbird on TN. Everything is right about this portrait of a Costa's Hummingbird: the technical aspects, the composition and how her breast contrasts so well against the BG vegetation.
This has to be a favourite!
Thanks!

Hi Jane,
Outstanding shot of this great looking Hummingbird with immaculate sharpness and details on its plumage. Fantastic pose captured and that loooong bill looks so cute. Superb lighting and perfect DOF here lets it stand out from the BG so well. Very nice composition too. Thanks for sharing this image.

This is one of the first pictures of hummingbird not in flight :-) Very cute bird, I like its pose and green/grey colours. Also slightly blurred leaves on BG made good composition.
