Getting a picture of a humming bird (ruby throated) was one of my goals this summer, and now I can say I did!Related content

Absolutely amazing shot! The bird is completely in focus and backlit to boot!
So beautiful! You also nailed the framing which is super hard with birds.
Great work! 
Loving the more like this, since that means I keep finding more beautiful pics

What an interesting capture. I don't think I've ever seen a female ruby throated humming bird so puffy. Of course, I've never seen one sitting still. At my parents house, if you wait long enough, I've seen up to five humming birds at a time. They make the funniest noises at each other.
Great capture.

Awesome, you don't see those fellers sitting still very much.
And yeah, I can't see fullview either.

You might have to reload it. This has happened to me before when I pick a small size for display.

Not sure you needed the ISO at 800???
It's a great photo, either way.
