Awesome shot! You did this with a rebel xt? wow
I want to buy a lens and I need some help. I've posted some on my journal that I've been looking around. A good lens with a really nice price, if you could help that would be great!

I agree with krash- it appears to be an immature male Anna's. If the breast were paler I would say a broad-tailed but I think Anna's is a better fit.
Good catch-any hummingbirds I ever try to get come out as a streak of green.

I love the intense, yet washed out colors. The greens and the blue seem to be especially vibrant/faded.
And unlike Iceblue, I think it's perfect like this, everything blurry around it. Like it would be.
Very good.

You should try to make visible some elements of the background, like leaves or sky... Portray the bird in nature.
