Green & Purple
At Bosque de Paz Lodge in Costa Rica the hummingbirds visited the feeders regularly and the Green-crowned Brillants dominated everything and everybody. They outnumbered the other species and were very agressive towards their own kind as well. The need for sugar makes it a everyman for himself war during the day. It did provide the photographer lots of oppertunaties to score these bold little creatures.

Wonderful colours and composition , I am curious to the shutter speed you have used to get these frozen wings,
Dennis Binda  Thx Jan, de flitspuls bepaald de snelheid. Hier is gekozen voor 1/16 wat volgens mij ongeveer overeenkomt met 1/10000s, genoeg om de bweging te bevriezen. De sluitertijd van de camera is hier irrelevant.

groet, Dennis
Jan Gravekamp  Weer wat geleerd, knap gedaan hoor! Erg mooi resultaat. Bedankt voor de info.
Groet Jan

Roeselien Raimond  Ben bang dat t op dit moment financieel een heel klein beetje niet zo haalbaar is, maar mocht je ooit nog een fotografie assistente nodig hebben (ik kan heel goed sjouwen:D)...count me in! :D

Beautifully frozen in-flight of this hummer - superb detail throughout. It is almost comic watching them wage their little aerial wars for the flowers and the life-giving sugar within.
