more of the female starfrontlet, when she flies you can see lots of fuchsia sparkle...
same species & probably the same bird as the previous photo
the background with the bright highlights was giving me fits but the bird herself was very cooperative

"There are other barbets trying to take the food in the feeders you put out for me, I mean wtf, Spot-crowns, Red-headeds... who allowed all those other species???"
despite the size advantage enjoyed by this large barbet, this birb was kept very busy attempting to guard all the fruit feeders at the cloud forest overlook...

perhaps because they are so maneuverable, hummingbirds fear nothing & can be one of the easiest subjects for a beginner to practice with
garden hummingbirds used to coming to feeders don't seem bothered at all by flash setups...
