I'm up to 6 feeders now... And last evening a male Ruby Throated Hummingbird came in. Light was poor so I switched to the D4 and started swapping/removing TC's.

Bird photography at it`s best Steven,and a refreshing change.Excellent!!
 
I think the official "composition police" may have a word about the last 2 :thinking:
Great looking bird and superb detail (y)
 
Fantasic set there.
 
By all accounts a very difficult bird to capture in flight but you have done an amazing job with this set Steven.
