A few from this years tours to Ecuador. It such a beautiful place with kind locals. We were also fortunate to have the opportunity to photograph a Chestnut-crowned Antpitta as well, who really likes the dark spaces and quiet areas.

I've added a ton more to my hummingbird gallery if you love hummingbird images.

The details are just incredible and the smooth background really stands the objects out. Masterfully done, Matt!

Some fine stuff. What I believe is the antipitta looks like an ovenbird or maybe a thrush. The long blue tailed hummer vertical crop is wonderful. I should definitely go.

Don, it is a strange looking bird. I think that is what makes it so desirable amoung birders. When I see them, I'll always think "Ovenbird" now.

Its a combination of a Nikon D4, D5, and D500. I was experimenting with some new bodies this year before I sold my D4. The lens is a 300mm 2.8.
