The red bloom in the lower left is distracting and i'm not sure what the green specks are around it's beak...?

Your thoughts are appreciated!

Neat capture Zeph. The bird could have bit more sharpened to bring out more details. The lover left could have been selectively desaturated to reduce the distraction. Nevetheless neat capture. I like it very much.

Wonderful colors and as Dave said nice detail for one of these guys. I'm guessing the stuff on the beak is pollen.

I second Tim's thought on pollen. That's what I see on my hummer shots now & then.

Just clone out the flower on the left. No one will know nor care.

Very nice capture of a CWW, My thoughts? Ok I would have cranked up the ISO to at least 800 ISO and then the shutter would have been up to around 1/400 or there a bouts this would have help with motion in the shot shooting at 620mm. I don't think you have much there but it would have been much sharper and the ISO would not of hurt the image at all. Great capture!
