Even though this little guy rarely came down to my feeder he was pretty tenacious about guarding it to make sure no one else could feed there.

Nice and interesting pose captured, John!
Perhaps just a touch less on sharpening ...

I agree, sometimes these guys act like they own a feeder. Good pose, composition, and color. Very nice!

John, such a cute little guy and a tenacious turf protector, love the unusual pose with the nicely shown gorget and the luminosity of the tail and back wing.

A refreshingly different view of one of these little beauties John. I love the perspective and pose you captured here!
