Recently had the good fortune to visit Costa Rica, Hummingbird heaven. Great practice for the air show season. A few pics.

Lovely! Not so easy as some people might think either - getting that shutter speed just right. Great stuff :clap:

Thanks all for the positive feedback. I can thoroughly recommend Costa Rica for any birders out there in UKAR land and I know there is a few of you.

Seriously fabulous, I imagine its a bit like capturing hawker dragonflies in the hover, but these are lovely detailed. Sweet.
