Late visitor to our backyard feeder. I think the pose and dark background makes this a unique capture. I didn't get a chance to try to do anything for the noise.
Thanks for all the comments. I appreciate your input.

Very unusual, indeed, to see a hummingbird at night. The whole thing is a bit noisy but that is probably hard to avoid. The crop seems rather tight near the beak.
Wow! That had to be quite a hutter speed. I'd love to see the cropping more cenetered, but it's hard not to appreciate a shot like this knowing it's not easy to come by.
Hard to rate this shot as the noise is so extreme due I suppose to a very fast ISO. Credit for capturing the bird in difficult conditions but suffers from poor quality.
