Carl - Nice captures, especially #1. Have you considered adding a little speedlight fill flash? Dark areas could use a little extra illumination.

I just purchased a "Better Beamer" (speedlight extender) to use with my 300-mm lens, just for shooting hummers.

Thanks for viewing and commenting. Appreciate it. The "Better Beamer" looks like it would do the job. Thanks for the info.

It enables the light from your flash to be magnified and light goes further.
