    I've seen many hummingbirds in my lifetime, but never sitting in a nest or, for that matter, anywhere near a nest. This is a fantastic shot!!

    Could I be more jealous of this shot? No, I don't think I could. Kudos.

    I'm with JT on that one... very very jealous of you having the opportunity to capture not only a hummingbird, but one nesting. I read the EXIF data, 70mm? How come? How did you get so close? Even cropped, that's damn close.
