A lucky catch.
In my opinion getting a sharp image of a hummingbird is pure luck.
This one was taken at Quail Botanical Gardens yesterday morning.

lucky perhaps that one of these constantly active birds actually sits still for a brief moment...but it took your sharp skills to maximize the moment and make this excellent crisp image...V
