This is beautiful, Karen. Love the purity of the throat. You lost out to an inquisitive tilt of the head over there in blue, but this is still a stunner of a hummer :-) 'Grats on HM!

Great flight shot of these little F1's on wings :) Perfect still head and blurred wings. Great BG. Super catchlight. It however concerns me that as there is no environment (flower(s), stems, branches) that it may be a baited site. From a photographic skill and technicals POV it's worth at least an 8. With the clean BG 9. Unbaited, with an actual flower, 10.
