And another hummingbird...

I've been trying to get the red throat of the male, but this little lady dive bombs anything that comes near the feeder. Today, she hit a chickadee in mid-air! Now there would be a shot to catch. - Terry

Kind of dark on my monitor but, if it's not against your ethics, can be fixed in post-processing.

Good capture.

1/2000 eh ?

One of your best yet :)

Wonder if she's curling her toes with pleasure at the delicious drink, he, he...

Cheers, Don

I consider post processing as the other half of photography. :) Unfortunately, you need a good shot to work with and this one was way underexposed. It has already been lightened a lot. I just need to do better on the first half of the job - Terry

Not disagreeing with you, but, purely on if this image as presented can be brightened up more, this one can certainly be made brighter (and much brighter) and it is very easy to do in post-processing.

So sharp, great photo !

Beautiful colors in the back
