Thanks Ian and Jamie,
These photos were taken at a garden (recently opened to the public) in the Northern Range. It's probably 10 km west of Asa. Today this is the best location in Trinidad for hummers with typically 11 species seen on any given day.

Congratulations on capturing this hummer. I have seen this bird in at least six different places and I still have no picture that I would dare post! Wonderful focus, detail, color, and background. Superb!!!
