Hi Luggers,
The hummingbirds keep coming and the flowers are opening to welcome them. 
What am I to do?
Of course, I have to keep taking pictures of them. :-)

Here are three more all taken with the D800E and the 300 f4.0 + 2X extender. 
Each cropped to about 1/4 in CS6.
Mostly ISO 6400 f11 and 1/2000.

In the this first one I have tried for a slightly different view - with the 
bird's wings embracing the petunia.

This is a more traditional side view

And here is the wing embracing flower view again. This time it is a pinks - 
so my wife tells me.
