Hummmmmmm...

Here is a hummer that I caught at the feeder this fall. The reason for the white BG is that it was all water behind as we are on a lake. I was pretty happy to get this shot as these guys are pretty skiterish, although they seem to buzz me a lot when I change the feeder out! I was pretty close to it under a camo blanket so there is no crop.

Funnest thing for me to shot are these active little birds -- I'm thinking 1/500 is a bit slow to stop the action as the oof wing in the foreground does not look good to me - I have shot these guys at 1/3000 and still got some wing blur.
