Tufted Coquette Photography
The Tufted Coquette is one of the smallest hummingbirds you're ever likely to point a lens at, and NaturesLens builds in plenty of patient waiting time so you can capture its tufted head plumes and iridescent colouring as it moves between flowering shrubs. Its diminutive size and constant movement make it a rewarding, if challenging, subject for anyone keen to sharpen their skills with fast-moving, small-bodied birds. Photographers joining this trip should expect to work on quick reflexes and careful focus technique to do justice to such a tiny, dazzling bird.
