thanks very much, Vicky, happy you like it. Think this is one of my favorites of this summer so far, as like the colour of the flowers here also, - sortof "sets it off" somehow.

Alandra - I don't know how you do it. This one is breathtaking with the incredible color and detail. I've tried getting them, but never seem to be able to get the depth you've perfected. Absolutely gorgeous. Vicki

Very nice Alandra,this back ground really compliments the hummer,especially the blurry background against the crisp/clear head .

Love all the green shades with the lovely pinky/red flowers, all goes so well with the colourings in the birds wings.

thanks very much Lorraine and Carol. Spent sometime reading up on them last evening, trying to decide if this one's a Rufous female or an Allen's, -but still am not sure.

I think the flowers and the green leaves along with the branch all come together perfectly with this little bird, a fantastic image.

thanks very much, Orchidea Blue and Alan for the lovely comments, that's really nice of you, and appreciated. Always happy to share them. I took quite a few hummer shots yesterday, but they were all taken at quite a distance, - not used to me yet, I guess, - so didn't get too many I felt were worth posting here.

What a gorgeous view of the colorful Hummingbird in the pretty flowers. I like how all the green leaves complement the hummers green feathers. Your composition is also really nice with room for the hummer to look into. I second Rosey's comment about all of your superb hummingbird photos being a real pleasure to view.

Hello Alandra it's a pleasure to the eyes to look at all the birds that you share with us. Please accept my congratulations for all your shots.
