As a part of Nicoya Peninsula Avian Research Station in Costa Rica, RTPI Affiliate Sean Graesser and his colleagues band hummingbirds on a large scale to look at longevity and site fidelity. With nine species being caught on a regular basis there is quite the variety of subjects to photograph. Here we have the delightfully named Cinnamon Hummingbird (Amazilia rutila), a specialist of dry forests that encompass the northwest corner of Costa Rica. It is a lovely looking species with a striking cinnamon underwash and red bill. It is also one of the easier birds to spot from afar with its striking but subtle plumage darting in and out of flowers while feeding.
