birds - hummingbirds Hummer in May

It would be nice to have a different hummingbird drop by, but this

little guy just loves to sit and pose for me, so how can I resist?!

Comments?

Nicely done, I like how the moss and branch add an in camera frame.

I don't see how you could resist ...or him. He's very photogenic.

Un magnifico encuadre, perfecta luz y color, con una bellisima composicion, un cordial saludo Kim-.

It's nice to see a picture of a perched hummingbird. The detail in the bird is very nice. I like the background here too. I could do without the rope thingy but it is kind of interesting the way it intersects the branch. Also, it may be a silly thing to notice but I like the way the angle of the bird matches the angle of the small broken off branch closest to the bird.

Thanks, guys. Jamie, the "rope thingie" is actually Spanish Moss and that was one of the reasons I liked this particular shot - it kind of framed the bird. Most of my hummer shots ARE perched - these buff-bellied hummers like to do that a lot. In flight, they move a whole lot faster than I can press the camera button! :)

I like the background also, but wasn't too sure about the hanging moss until you mentioned that it is framing the bird. Yeah, I guess it's growing on me the more I look. Just need that one strand removed that "touches" it's head IMO.

Nice shot, great details and composition! It is definitely hard to find them standing still!

You're right - you simply should NOT resist!! :-)
