[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This shot took a while to get. I sat near this humming bird feeder for around an hour waiting for a landing. Finally this one got used to my presence and decided to venture closer. It was also a challenge because another Ruby Throated Hummingbird kept running this one off...not really sure why? This particular bird has a very irridecent green back when it hits the light just right. A very beautiful bird!

Nicely captured, Jeremia. Good composition and good details. I think it was a smart to capture it on the feeder. There is a bit of noise in the background though, that is common in darker locations. This can be removed with a noise filter. I've posted a WorkShop.
