Hummingbirds in Loreto
It's that time of year here, and this is a male Costa's "Hey, baby, how about me?" face.
This is a male Xantus's "Is this my better side?" face.
And this is in lieu of flipping off the annoying guy with the camera. They don't have fingers.

Great photos of an amazing creature for sure!
The SAME boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It's about what you are made of NOT the circumstance.

tehag.....Great photos, as usual! Your bird pics are the best I've seen, amateur or professional.
Do you use HDR? If so, what tool do you recommend?

Amazing shot of the Costa's! do you mind me asking the stats on that shot? lens, shutter, f-stop etc...? We get some hummingbirds here and I'd love
to get one in flight like that.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather, to skid in
sideways, Wine in one hand - chocolate covered strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming \'Woohoo - What
a Ride!
