Humminbirds: Sometimes they land

[randyphotoforum]

and on pretty flowers

D4 + 500/4 + 1.7TC with SB800 for fill.

f/5, 1/1600, iso8000, ev=0
No noise reduction software was used and NR is turned off in the camera
1/1600 because I was shooting in flight hummers and didn't have time to slow it down (and lower the iso) when this guy landed

Wow! What a gorgeous breed and capture! I went to look this guy up but not sure, is he a Buff Bellied?

That could be the most beautiful and cool looking hummingbird I've seen. Great shot.
