I photographed this White-vented Violetear on a trip last year, to Canastra National Park, a must see place in Brazil, for nature photographers. I recommend.

1/250, f/5.6, ISO 100, @420mm.
Canon 50D with 300mm f/2.8 IS + TC 1.4x.

Very nice to have the bird pose so you can know it's name! Large version shows nice details and color. Sharon

Gorgeous, Jefferson. I love the iridescence you caught, and the detail is outstanding.
