Anna's Hummingbird at a Hummingbird Sage Flower
If I stand at least 7' away from our hummingbird sage for about 20 minutes, a hummingbird invariably stops by. 7' is the minimum focus distance of the 200-500mm lens used here to capture the bird with enough resolution to mimic the use of a macro lens.
