CR 6: Rancho to Savegre

Finally some decent shots of hummers.  The 3-hour trip from Rancho to Savegre was highlighted by a stop for lunch at a restaurant that featured a platform alive with Hummingbirds.  With decent light, I got some good shots (finally) after struggling with lighting. 
A few shots left from Rancho
Here is a Rufous-tailed Hummer that lost half it 's tail.

On the advice of the group of pro photographers at Rancho, I tried using my flash
and this was the results of a White-necked Jacobin

Great bird shows up my last morning in Rancho
Golden-winged Warbler



This is a female Snowcap.  I missed the male.

The Mot-mot showed up on the feeders, to the ecstasy of the pro photographers.
