That is a sweet potato flower in my vegetable garden. The vines are all over the place. The flowers are known to produce nectar that will attract pollinators and occasionally hummingbirds.

I set up my Canon with the heavy 200-800 lense on a tripod for this capture. It was the better choice versus the Sony as I knew exactly where the hummer would show up, I could have the camera set up and didn’t have to hold it waiting for the hummer to show up. I also took some shots with the Sony to compare. The Canon did better this time.
