Fantastic shot!
I've had a female hummingbird visiting my Hesperaloe parvifolia lately but there is no way my meager photographic skills could capture it.
Did you have a tripod set up, waiting? Remote shutter control?

Thanks Erik! That was shot freehand,noticed him feeding there earlier in the day, so I just waited for him to come back.
About an hour wait, but worth it 8)
