Just another Anna's Hummingbird. Tried a different location this time. I think next time I'm going to try and light the background. Right now it's in the shade 100% of the time (awning).

Nice. :clap You could also try hanging a black cloth or a white cloth behind the feeder.
How about a standing update.

Welll, I haven't used my wheelchair in about two months. Got my brace off last week. I don't have to go back to Stanford until April! I will be starting physical therapy shortly. I occasionally walk WITHOUT my walker, but only around the house and only very short trips. Drove a car for the first time in 3 years!

Thanks for remembering and thanks for looking! :bow

The bird stands out nicely on this well focused and exposed shot. :thumb
