Hi all :)

Been a while since I've posted, I hope you are all well.

Here is an Antillean crested hummingbird to share with from this morning, in Antigua!

Excellent capture! I can't wait until our hummers come back! It's been a long winter!

Welcome back Seany. A very striking bird and photo. Have you tried to pull more detail out of the bird's back and tail? I'm surprised sometime by how much detail can be coaxed out of the dark areas.
