Hummingbirds in Costa Rica

I posted before, but have so many hummingbird images, I decided to post more.
These were all taken in Costa Rica, some with a tripod and some hand held.

Very nice. The upper left corner (in the rain) is especially appealing to me. When you get the location, lighting (flash or otherwise) and your settings right, it is easy to get a LOT of pictures of the hummingbirds in CR; for some reason the shutter button just has to be pushed. I have a hard time deleting some of them, even when I may have many of the same species.

Thanks so much. I completely agree. I have so many sharp images of the hummingbirds it is difficult to delete them. Love your image of the Quetzel. I was able to photograph the male and the female but he was behind one of the branches.

I want to go, just for the hummers. Beautiful shots. I wish they had downloads available. Any particular place for hummers?
