I agree with Jane and Yves.. what a great action capture and so much more. Perfect focus with beautiful tones and detail on this lovely lady as she goes about her busy day. Wonderful series Debra, thanks for sharing!

Thanks Heather. I really enjoyed trying to capture these little birds doing what they do. I love have they interact with each other.

Description
The nectar filled, vivid orange colour of the tiger lily is quite the attraction to the Ruby Throated Hummingbird. This little lady had been resting before going back in for another feeding.
