Hovering Hummer
This tiny terror was coming in for a landing at my sister's feeder this afternoon. I used a 300 mm lens with a 1.4 teleconverter, so with the multiplication factor of 1.5 it was effectively a 630 mm lens. This is quite a tight crop to make this bird look so big. This was taken with a shutter speed of 1/3000 second, so you can imagine how fast its wings were beating.
