Scaly-breasted Hummingbird

Scaly-breasted Hummingbird: Los Cosingos Scanturay, Costa Rica, December 2022 — Not a very exciting hummingbird, as the colorful hummingbirds go, and according to some authorities, common in its largely Central American range, but not easy to see. This one was tucked back deep in the foliage at the Alexander Skutch homestead, near the main house. No flashy gorget…and, in fact, not much of a Scaly-breast either. Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixomator Pro and Apple Photos. ISO 200 @ f4 @ 1/500th.
