I can't get enough of hummingbird images so keep `em coming! Gorgeous image here. Beautiful hummingbird (I didn't see this one when I was in Costa Rica), sweet pose and composition. Cheers.

I am surprised you didn't see this species as it was by far the most common everywhere we went in the lowlands. This one was from Adolfo's place at Laguna Lagarto.

Tim, very nice image. I hadn't yet worked with Adolfo to set up the multi-flash hummingbird area when Gary was there a few years ago

Superb Tim!! I will be in the same spot in a few months time with lots of hummer images. I am headed there in June. Lovely specimen and spot on with the flash setup.

All the best

Late to the party but had to stop by to say how beautiful this frame is. The colors are fantastic on this guy and that perch and Bg look great again. Very nice.
