America got it's adorable hummers, but in Africa you find the Sunbirds occupying the same ecological niche. This one was very cooperative. Greater double collared sunbird, F70-210mm @210mm and 1/500 sec f8.

Great capture of the green in the bird, almost looks like metal.

Africa is a birdie shooters' heaven. They are probably quite friendly to human being who are the minority there Look forward to seeing more of your images when you have a chance to process/compile them Daniel |

Hi Kjell,
I don't think it gets any better than this. A great capture of a very impressive subject, in a very exotic (for me, at least) setting. I think nothing enhances a great experience more than capturing some of the best moments with some top-shelf images, so the experience can be vividly relived many times over. Very well done! Scott |

Another great image. Those highly reflective metallic colors can be hard to capture in direct sunlight.
