Sword-billed Hummingbird

This is presumably the same male I photographed at Hacienda El Bosque two days earlier, and this headshot offers a closer and complementary view to my high key image from that first session. I had to shoot down the mountainside to obtain the clear background, and you can see the reflection of my fill flash in the bird's eye if you look closely. Exaggerated as the male's bill is, the female's would be ~15% longer! I'll have to make an extra effort to get a shot of her on my next visit.

Hacienda El Bosque, Manizales, Caldas, Colombia, 7/3/19
Canon 600mm f/4 on EOS 5D Mark IV
1/200 at f/7.1, ISO 1600, fill flash
