Alandra, this is beautiful beyond words. An angel realm unaware that it has slipped into our dimension. Purity and loveliness in your wonderful picture.

thankyou Karen for the nice comments. That's a good point, hadn't thought of it that way : ) Was just surprised to see the hummer feeding from the iris.

Great capture. This bird is smart. It found a flower it can sit on while it feeds! Well done.

thankyou, Alex D for the nice praise, - have been quite surprised at how the wings have been showing up lately : ) I like the way her tiny feet show up in this one, resting on the Iris petal : )

Wow. You are becoming an expert hummingbird photographer. You are starting to get their wings with little movement as though they are frozen in space.
