More hummingbirds! CC appreciated...

Yes, more photos of hummingbirds. lol! Not even our rain and thunderstorms yesterday could keep these little birds away.

This was taken using a Nikon D810 with a Sigma 150-600mm lens. 1/500 sec at f/5.6, ISO 125 and 360mm focal length.

As always, any cc is greatly appreciated! How's the crop? Color? (And before anyone mentions it, I realize we shouldn't use the colored hummingbird food... my wife hung this and I choose my battles wisely. lol)

Nice capture! As i am writing this I am wayching my own hummingbirds outside my window. I love the interaction they have with each other

Thanks, Dan! This was a great hour-long exercise, both to work on my "wildlife" photography skills and constantly swinging that 5 lb lens around chasing these fast little buggers. lol! Their interactions are interesting, but it seems ours are always fighting. I've counted 5 so far, and they each are determined to be king of the hill.

Yea, we have six and it is a battle royal.
