Hermits are pretty cool looking hummingbirds, with their fancy tails and curved bills. In this case, a white-whiskered hermit that I found flitting around in the Ecuadorian cloud forest. Nikon D800 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 310mm) ISO 800, f/5.6 at 1/1600th of a second, Nikon SB-900 flash

Stunning! Shots of hummingbirds should always be taken when they’re in flight. Love the red on the lower beak.
