Swallow-tailed Hummingbird (Eupetomena macroura)

More backyard fun.

I usually only take pics of the hummers when I catch them in some sun light, because my camera does very poorly in the shade areas and they are so small. But this fellow let me get so close to him that even though he was in the shade, the photo turned out very pleasant I think.
