Most beautiful of all? - Red-tailed Comet (Bolivia)

Postby Glenn Bartley » Sun Dec 02, 2012 5:36 pm

This guy has to be considered in the top 5 most beautiful hummingbirds in the world. What an absolute stunner!!

I found this guy feeding on some roadside flowers in the mountains and managed to get a few nice frames that really show off the birds incredible tail. I hope that you enjoy them!

Lots more to come from Bolivia :D
