Male ruby-throated hummingbird (Archilochus colubris), Talbotton, GA. This shot was not in sharp focus, but after a half hour of chasing, this was the only good pose I managed to get. The females are relatively easy to shoot, but the males are always on the move, looking out for and fighting with other males.
