Nikon D850, Nikon 500 F5.6 pf
ISO 800, 1/500s, F5.6 This is a dominant male Ruby-throated Hummingbird that was using this perch to launch chases against it's rival males for territorial and feeding purposes. There was a medium sized patch of blackberry bushes in full bloom in an opening in the woods that he kept for his own. In this image he chirped as he was launching his attack on a hummingbird below. Unfortunately it was a cloudy day and my somewhat slow shutter speed did not quite keep it's head completely sharp. However, I thought it was close enough that the overall image was worth submitting.
