These are really good! I just wonder what de-noising program do you use (or it's very high ISO)?Here is a series of a juvenile male ruby-throated hummingbird. Most of the shots are perched, with a couple of shots with wings expanded. Shot with the 100-500L. The developing iridescent gorget on his throat is visible in the first shot.View attachment 199311 Their metallic green backs are extremely striking. However, the delicate, subtle color and patterns on the front are truly sublime.
View attachment 199310I have many HB-in-flight shots, but it's rare for me to capture them perched. Here he's enjoying being able to sip nectar without flapping his wings. Notice that the red gorget is almost invisible here.

View attachment 199313Also extremely beautiful are the very delicate black wing feathers. It's hard to appreciate their full beauty when the bird is in flight as it is here with the HB perched.
