It's quite strange that I was able to photograph the village weaver on Fuerteventura. This species is found in Africa and there is widespread in many countries of the continent. Its weight is about 40 grams, and a wingspan is approximately 40 cm. In fact, I saw it when shooting iguanas. When the weaver saw the passing iguana, it watched him attentively giving out steady, loud sound. It was clear that the bird was very afraid of the reptile, as iguanas should be afraid of small weavers.

The photos in the gallery of the violaceous euphonia were taken in the vicinity of Iguasu waterfalls. I had a few encounters with this bird, so I could create a more extensive gallery presenting the charm of this species. It occurs in northern and eastern Brazil and in northern Argentina. A violaceous euphonia weighs about 14 grams.

Although I managed to capture many species of hummingbirds, you can find there one description of all 22 species photographed in Costa Rica together. This time my expedition took longer and the light was better, I had therefore an opportunity to take many dynamic pictures. It is interesting that driving around Costa Rica after traveling several kilometers there were species of hummingbirds completely different from those we could observe earlier.

Being in Iguazú, even if you are not particularly interested in bird beauties, you should visit a place, which is unique on a global scale. Every taxi driver knows this place in  Iguazú and for a few dollars will take you to an amazing hummingbird garden. An admission ticket costs really little. The place itself is very plain. For many years, on a small area of a backgarden, its owner has been hanging water fountains for hummingbirds around.
