Very nice pictures with a good sharpness.

Sensacional,lindo demais! abraços, lindo dia! chica
it's super special; I just think these little birds are adorable. Are they reasonably accommodating, to allow you to get 'physically closer' to take that snapshot?
All I can think of to say is, WOW!
Magnificent!!!
Superb photo of the Hummer. Whenever I take photos of Hummers, it's invariably through our dining room double-glass doors. Doesn't help the quality of my photos too much.
He's sticking his tongue out. :) I've watched hummers sit on the feeder and do this. We still have a few stopping by. They are late leaving this year so I guess they know the weather is going to be good.
Super shot- I can't get near enough to my hummers to get a shot like this, yet when I ignore them, they zoom back and forth around my head.
who knew little boys who stick out their tongues could be so adorable?! :P
Great capture with its tongue out! We are still having these tiny little creatures visit our feeder. I leave it up until early October.
this looks like a girl to me, i know nothing!!
must be a boy though, my mom taught me not to stick my tongue out at peeps ;)
So lovley photo of that little one,Nette
Great close up!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
So rare to see one sitting still. Wonderful shot!
Cute shot of Junior! I did not think to give my hummers names! Have a great evening and a happy week, Brian!
Well hey, you've done it again. Love it, love it. I have little guys like this around but I could never capture them like this. Great job, Brian ...

Nice work, Brian!
Superb image of a difficult subject.
Beautiful shot, Brian.
Oh, what a perfect shot! Every detail is amazing.
Excellent shot Brian! Look at those nice new feathers! And the tongue of course ;-)
enJOYing your up close shot which I doubt you got close to. Those critters are quick.
Great picture.
I'm not sure where I read it but the phrase "if your pictures aren't good enough, you are not close enough comes to mind"
The exception I used most is birds in flight - where I tend to "pull back, and crop" to avoid clipping wing tips etc.

The detail in this is amazing! Always love seeing your images, Brian.
What a fabulous shot - loving the tongue!
