Endemic of the humid higlands of Mexico, this is one of the most smallest hummers. they really remember the bumblebee sound when fly.

Hola Raul

Love it; amazing creature; feathers are great
might take a bit from the right and lose the OOF twig?

Look forward to your posta , always something different

is correct, the OOF twig is very distracting, thx for your critic

Nice pose and colours, and I agree about the OOF twig. Love how the gorget's colours reflect off the bill...very cool. I'd tone down the two large bright areas and some fill would have helped here IMO. Did you need to lighten the tail?

Thx Daniel, i agreed with work in the two large bright areas, the tail is naturally obscure
