This is an Anna's Hummingbird shot while feeding on cactus blooms in San Diego in August. This was shot without the aid of a flash, so there is wing blur. It was handheld.
Cropped heavily and processed in LR.

Fortunately very bright out at that time. Overcast had burnt off about 15 minutes earlier. Was able to use fast SS; had it been earlier, would have required much slower SS or higher iso. Teleconverter required f8.
