Booted Racket-tail - Ecuador
D500, 70-200E @ 160mm, ISO 200, f/13, 1/200
Another Booted Racket-tail (and probably not the last ;) )  Here this mail is showing off his fuzzy boots and his Racket-tail namesakes very well.

As if the tail isn't enough to make these tiny beauties adorable, the furry bootees just put them over the top!  Wonderful image E.J. and I hope you've got plenty more.  8)

E.J., this is pure sweetness, absolutely adore this beautiful gem.  The flower and pose are incredible - wings back, tail swept, and their insanely cute boots!
