Not the best pic of a Hummingbird, It seems to like the phlox, in a week or so the Rose of Sharon's should be blooming.. not edited just resized.

Your hummer’s eye is nice and sharp and that is what counts the most. At least that’s what it says in 10 Tips for Better Bird Photos. Then again, I only believe half of what I read. Does that mean the eye only needs to be half as sharp, which isn’t really sharp, but that doesn’t mean it’s dull, I mean blurred, heck, I don’t know what I mean. What gets me is that you’ve managed to capture a bit of its telescoping tongue. I have such a powerful urge to connect that bit of tongue with the equally tongue-like white line on the other side of the bloom using Photoshop. That would provide a far-reaching tongue of epic proportions worthy of any early-blooming Rose-of-Sharon. Who the hell is Sharon anyway? Can I go now? Ha, that’s rich. I wasn’t invited in the first place.
