I still try to find out the best setting for different scenarios with the a9 II. This was taken on the first day of shooting with. Some mistakes were made but I came away with a couple of good shots. 

Sony a9 II
Sony 200-600
ISO1000
1/4000 s
f 6.3

This is my new favourite of your hummingbird series, Karl ! ( The Sony system seems to be working out very well for you; and I know you have Nikon as well.)

Another terrific shot in your series of this hummingbird.  In each one you've managed to catch his gorget lit up, as well as nice wing positions. A very nice background in this one as well.  Very nice.
