I particularly like this photograph.

Hummingbirds didn’t seem to care for this particular flower as much as others that were around so getting quality photographs that feature this flower was challenging.

I’m very happy with this photograph.

In case you were wondering what a Collared Inca would look like in this specific pose, wonder no more. Kind of bug-eyed it turns out.

I’ve seen a Green Fronted Lancebill twice in my life. The first time was in Costa Rica about a year ago and a half ago and the second time was during my recent Ecuador trip. Both of those were at locations featuring water. The Lancebill in Costa Rica was always perched on a rock in the middle of a large stream. And the Lancebill in Ecuador that is featured in my photograph is in front of a small waterfall. If the waterfall was in focus then this would not be an impressive looking photo. The Lancebill would be just as sharp as the waterfall and there wouldn’t be a good separation. But, it’s a little harder to tell that there is a waterfall behind it.

I like this pose from the Tyrian Metaltail.

Another shot of a Sword Billed Hummingbird found at Zuro Loma Reserve in Ecuador.  Our local Guide, Dario, took us to this property which is actually owned by his family. The property used to be used for cattle grazing but the family is working hard to plant more plants and attract more wildlife and birds. Even you can go visit this property and support their efforts. I would recommend it!

This Andean Emerald looks tiny on the giant leaf it’s perched on.

I took a lot of photographs with this specific plant.  It was the best looking one at the feeders that we were taking photos at.  This pink part of the plant was the flower that was growing out of the middle of a Bromeliad looking plant.
