"As the world's most beautiful hummingbird, I have posed for you, and it is now your duty to take my photo"-- a modest & unassuming male Blue-throated Starfrontlet

#Hummingbird #Bird #Birding #Photography #BirdPhotography #Nature #Outdoors #Colombia #PhotoMonday

A dark hummingbird with incredible flash is sitting erect where he can catch the sunlight to best show off his iridescent colors-- blue on his forecrown, purple on the throat, green bib, fuchsia belly. This is the famous Blue-throated Starfrontlet male.  El Bosque Guijira Reserve, Colombia. Nov 2025. Photo by Peachfront.

A plump green hummingbird with lots of flash, including a fuchsia gorget, sits on a perch with a stern expression on his face. This is a Longuemare's Sunangel male, and it isn't just you he disapproves of, this bird was ready to fight and chase the whole world.  November 2025. Near Bogota, Colombia. Photo by Peachfront.

"a light in a rainy forest"

#SilentSunday #Rain #Bird #Birding #Ecuador #BirdsOfMastodon #Wildlife #Photography #BirdPhotography #Mood #Nature #Hummingbird #Hummingbirds

In a dark, rain-streaked green blur of forest, a  hummingbird sits on a branch with lifted head positioned to the catch the one shaft of light to show off the pink flash in his throat. This is the Fawn-breasted Brilliant.  I have photo'd 50 species of hummingbirds, but this one of the first I ever tried to photograph with my Nikon z72, and it was dark & rainy, but I still like the mood even if it also serves to demonstrate how far I've come. December 2023. Northern Ecuador. Photo by Peachfront.

i have photo'd 50 species of hummingbirds, some have little puffs...

#BirdsOfMastodon #Bird #Hummingbird #Blep #BirdPhotography #Photograph #Nature #Peru #Green

A green but not flashy hummingbird with a white belly and one of its leg puff showing is perched on a bare branch. This bird, the Greenish Puffleg, is sticking a skinny tongue out of the skinny beak. The background is the dappled green of a sunny day outdoors.  Photo by Peachfront. Nov 2024. Northwest Peru.
