Congratulations! Hummingbirds are difficult subjects to photograph as their movements are so quick and unpredictable. Your image captures three hummingbirds with detail and clarity that it amazes me. It is almost as if you can imagine what the two hummingbirds are thinking as they watch overhead of the flying acrobat above their heads. Excellent photograph. Thank you so much for submitted this photograph.

Wonderful image showing excellent detail! I felt like I was looking eye to eye with this hummingbird.. The sharpness of the hummingbird's wings creates a frozen in time image. You took advantage of using a high shutter speed to capture this moment froze i time. Thank you so much for participating in this contest.
What an incredible image of hummingbird feeding her young. The image provides a beautiful representation of the life of the hummingbird. I like how the image captures one chick and the eye to eye contact of the mother hummingbird. The depth of field of this image makes this image come alive as each branch points to the direction of the nest. Excellent image! Thank you for participating in this contest.
I love to see the acrobatic energy of this image. The detail of these two birds in incredible. When I watch hummingbirds, it is amazing how such tiny birds can be so fierce. This image captures the intensity of the birds defending their food source. Nicely done! Thank you for participating in this contest.
This image portrays the simplicity of the diminutive nature of the hummingbird. I liked the detail of the feathers and that if you look closely, you can see her tongue poking out too. The blurred background allows the viewer to focus on the hummingbird and makes this image "pop". Wonderful image! Thank you so much for participating in this contest.
Wow! The color combination makes this image come to life. Photographing hummingbirds can be challenging but this image brings focus to the eye of the hummingbird as well as tropical flower. I liked the orange and green of the bird combined with the salmon color of the flower. Well done! Thank you for participating in this contest.
