Hummingbirds are fascinating birds that come in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and colors that allow them to adapt to almost any environment. In Costa Rica there are approximately 54 species of hummingbirds and you can practically find at least one in every corner of the country. I share with you this small collection of several images of hummingbirds that I have shared in Hive in the last two years.
