Fiery-throated Hummingbird Photography
The Fiery-throated Hummingbird, with its glittering gorget flashing copper, violet & green as it catches the light, is one of the most rewarding subjects on a NaturesLens Costa Rican wildlife holiday, offering photographers the chance to work on fast shutter speeds & flash techniques needed to freeze its rapid wingbeats. Patient work at feeding stations & flowering shrubs gives plenty of opportunity to capture that iridescent throat patch at just the right angle.
