I usually don’t like to post photos that show the hand of man, but every now and again I make an exception. Thus is the case today with these two yin and yang hummingbirds. They are both velvet-purple coronets and they were hanging around a feeder near our cloud forest lodge in Ecuador, along with several other species of hummingbird.

great pic today.
Amazing that you could get such a sharp image. They are usually a blur.
Lords of the forest—-Free to dart, free to hover—-They have such small feet.
Very cool! And I hate birds.
Nice!

Marvelous Image. Humming Bird Wing caught in almost perfect focus in the Wild-this is supposed to be impossible!
