Blue-throated Goldentail Hummingbird

Pic for today: Blue-throated Goldentail Hummingbird: Danta Corcovado Lodge, Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica — After sunrise on the Canopy Tower at Danta Corcovado Lodge on the Osa Peninsula, we had a visit from a Blue-throated Goldentail. It was working the flowers at the base of the tower, so these shots are from 50 or 50 feet above and behind the bird…at or beyond the limits of my 600mm equivalent lens. The very definition of “wee and far” 🙂 Still a beautiful bird and a treat to see. Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixelmator Photo and Apple Photos. ISO 160 @ f4 @ 1/500th.
