That's a great shot, David. Great feather details.

I took 3 minutes from tiling my bathroom floor, to check my email. (I needed to
get off my knees!)
As I did, this little humming bird appeared at the flowers, just outside my
very dirty office window. I think it's a female Rufous Hummingbird, but I'll
leave that to the experts.
Luckily, I had the 50~200 2.8-3.5 + 1.4x on the camera (a 560mm eFL). I was
shooting against the light, at at distance of, say, 6.5 feet (2 meters).
Other than cropping the 4:3 frame to 3:2, to eliminate some excess foliage,
this is a full width shot.
Considering the window has not been cleaned in a year (talk about a dirty
filter!), I thought it not too bad...
