These photos were taken before I adopted digital photography. Luckily I was fortunate to take some high quality hummingbird photos that were easily digitized. Other slides were scanned to produce this digital image, but in general are of poor quality. Only the best representatives are presented here. This trip was a 2 week VENT tour led by Jeri Langham and Shawn Hayes from July 6 to 19, 2001. Jeri and Shawn were exceptional leaders, and I saw more birds than I could have hoped for. The tour included visits to Carara, Monteverde, Arenal, La Selva and Braulio Carillo.
