Been in Ecuador for the last 2 weeks and started to get into snapping some pics, these little fellas are damn hard to capture when not sitting still!

They really can be loud as feck especially when they come whizzing past your head at break neck speed.

Nice photos, never been a huge bird fan, but probably because we don't really get many exotic birds lol. Do enjoy seeing those bright green birds we get, forgot them names.

Any pics of the scenery? Smile

Beautiful pics (of the actual birds). They move around so gracefully. Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

I can't recall where I have seen them before but I watched them for hours when I did.
