Ruby Throated Hummingbird

Ruby Throated Hummingbird in very challenging light on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia

 

We travelled nearly 400 miles through the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains - unfortunately most of the drive was through cloud and fog

 

This photograph is very impressive considering that it was taken in heavily overcast backlit conditions, handholding a telephoto lens at 1/200 trying to capture a very active subject
