Whilst exploring the Cloud Forest Mountains of Costa Rica, we came across an abundant amount of bird species, but in particular many Hummingbirds. At the Monte Verde National Park, they have given Hummingbirds a unique food source, an artificial nectar.

The Hummingbirds feeds on sugar water, which they go crazy for! Nowhere have I have seen so many hummingbirds in my life! The best part is that you can get close up to them, because they are pretty tame. Its a wonderful experience hearing them buzz around you, from their fast-beating wings..

As they move around very quickly, it is difficult to try get photographs of them. After several hours at the feeders, I managed to get a handful of shots.

If you ever end up going to Costa Rica, go visit the cloud forest!
