Thanks for the response, and kind words.
When I saw the tongue I had to investigate myself, I found the link very interesting if you scroll down the information about the Hummingbird just blew me away.

Detail in birds is something I strive to capture, sometimes it works out.
Thanks for taking time to respond.

Thanks for the post. I was going to post a comment on the Woodpecker tongue, but this is so much better. I hope others will take time to check this out.

Nailed it. Spot on focus. Great character and colors. Love the tongue too. I recently captured a hummingbirds tongue. Didn't realize they were so long.

Those are really great photos, the second close-up really showcases that barbed tongue. I have heard woodpecker tongues are "sticky" as well for collecting ants and other small insects.
