White-crested Coquette (Costa Rica)

I'm not sure if this is actually the smallest bird I have ever photographed. But when it comes to the small hummingbirds there is a difference of only 1/4 inch between this guy and the world's smallest bird the Bee Hummingbird of Cuba.

Of the over 100 species of hummingbirds I have photographed this little cutie still ranks right near the top.

All the best!

Knowing how small those flowers are makes you appreciate tiny this hummingbird is. A beautiful image Glenn!

Beautiful bird. Like the colours. Subject is sharp and well exposed. Did you consider cloning out the flower on the left ?

And one of the most hard to find Glenn!

This is as you say ''a cutie'' and you captured this image wonderfully. I would not clone anything. Love the tiny feet.
