Info from Licensor: "This was the most extraordinary encounter I've had with a sword-billed hummingbird ever, and I can't resist sharing it with all of you. As I stood amidst a vibrant garden at 4200m of altitude, an exquisite sword-billed hummingbird appeared before me, hovering gracefully in mid-air. Its iridescent plumage shimmered under the warm sun, capturing my heart with every beat of its delicate wings. Time stood still as this miniature marvel drew closer, its slender, elongated bill reaching far beyond its tiny body. In an awe-inspiring display of precision, it extended its tongue towards me, leaving me speechless. Could you remain still? Let's celebrate nature's wonders together, one captivating slow-motion reel at a time."
