    Lost hummingbird

    Photo is of a Rufus Hummingbird taken in the mountains of Virginia in early November. She was on her way from Alaska to Mexico, by way of Virginia? The background in this photo has not been added. It is actually under the eaves of the overhang on the back deck. It was 35 degrees when this photo was taken.

    That is a nice shot and the dark background is very different from the usual sunny ones.
    Great catch.

    Really beautiful. The empty black background creates quite a cool effect.
