  • mazing work ,thanks to give me the posibility to see this miracle.GRACIAS.

  • Awesome work!

    ...too bad you didn't tried Costa Rica... 50 species in such a small territory and with some amazing sites to find them real easy and cool... maybe next time...

  • I once watched a humming bird take a bath in perhaps a centimetre of water on a surface just outside my window. The bath lasted a couple minutes and was one of the sensuous experiences I have ever witnessed. The bird rolled in the water, extending its feathers and allowing water to reach its skin.I think of them now as water birds. I have seen one come to hover in the fine spray of a garden hose too. Humminbirds and their relationship with water would make wonderful video.

  • We're seeing them now in ways we never could before, even just a few years ago. These new cameras are incredible.

  • 25/ per seconds... just like a standart vidéo cam !

  • How many flaps per second on average do they do with their wings?

  • Intelligent design! God is awesome!
