Nice ones Dennis and the Wilsons steals the show for me. Beautiful with the rest of the birds ranking the way you posted them. Nice series.

Just a suggestion on the last two and that is to try the burn tool in PS to reduce or eliminate the white spots from flash in the eyes of the Hummer and OC Warbler..it usualy works for me .

Very nice shots of some great little birds...Your hummingbird could very well be a female Anna's Hummingbird but I don't think I could tell for sure based on one picture.:)

Wow, Dennis, these are fantastic! I'm looking for the blur on the hummer, and I don't see any. Looks like the beamer is a little hot, but it's really working on colors and details.

Very nice images. Nice detail, and the flash doesn't seem to 'hurt' them much. How do you like the better beamer? Seems like an interesting tool, for birds...when you can get the close.

Nicely done.
