Such a lovely group of your work. I love the perch on the Yellow Billed Cardinal and the Volcano Hummingbird.
If forced to pick a favorite it would be the Ecuadorian Hillstar .
As usual, superb images, Juan! I live the toucan in the rain, the bat, the cardinal, the trogon, and... well, actually all of them. You did well there regardless of the gear used.

A terrific set Juan. Is the bat done with strobes or lamps?

Morris,
Thanks for asking, this is the same technique as with the hummingbirds, multiple flashes but images are taken at night of course. Some people use IR triggers, here I wait for the bat to come to the flower, I have to admit that this happens in a split second so eye thumb coordination is crucial!
