The nectar filled, vivid orange colour of the tiger lily is quite the attraction to the Ruby Throated Hummingbird. This little lady had been resting before going back in for another feeding.

I agree with Jane and Yves.. what a great action capture and so much more. Perfect focus with beautiful tones and detail on this lovely lady as she goes about her busy day. Wonderful series Debra, thanks for sharing!

So beautyful. A super compo of colours and a great action shot. Love those tiger lilly. I put specific flowers on my balcony and it is so nice to see them feed all summer long.
