 My apologies for not uploading the required detail information. Here it is.
This is a Ruby Throated Hummingbird that appeared at our house in autumn at a time when most hummingbirds start thinking of moving southward. This is a young female. She stayed at my flowers for a good 15 to 20 minutes!

Hey, I saw your post on the "newbie" forum because we joined at the same time; nobody can fully appreciate this shot unless they've tried to photograph these incredibly challenging subjects; excellent work in catching this one in flight, something that I've never been able to do with this kind of clarity; keep up the super work!
