Me and the wife were discussing our next travel plans - a pro wildlife photographer friend of ours told us many times that we should visit Costa Rica at some stage - your shots have just helped persuade us :)

Wow Paul, these guys are beautiful. Nice set on this one. I have never seen these before. The green colors and the red underbelly is a treat to see. Nice series, Thanks!

Was in Monteverde cloud forest in April this year and you would not believe how difficult it is to find such a colourful bird.
This was about the only good image that I had got.

Beautiful birds and shots. I reckon they would be stunning in flight.
