Zooming through the Caribbean skies, this Antillean Crested Hummingbird is the ultimate flower connoisseur! With its vibrant plumage and graceful flight, it's a true avian superstar. Watch as it hovers effortlessly, sipping nectar from the tropical blooms of St. Lucia's Fond Doux Plantation. This male hummingbird is a proud resident of the Windward Islands, specifically the Lesser Antilles. Known for its exquisite beauty and delicate nature, he belongs to the West Indian subspecies of Orthorhyncus cristatus exilis. Talk about an exclusive club! With his long beak perfectly adapted for reaching deep into flowers, our feathered friend indulges in a sweet feast fit for royalty. As he flits from bloom to bloom like a tiny helicopter, you can almost hear him hum with delight. Captured by FLPA photographer Neil Bowman, this stunning print freezes time and allows us to marvel at nature's wonders up close. It serves as a gentle reminder that even in paradise-like settings such as Saint Lucia, wildlife continues to thrive. So next time you spot a flash of iridescent colors darting among flowers in your own garden or on an exotic island getaway, take a moment to appreciate these incredible creatures who bring joy wherever they go.
