Isn't that incredible? I've seen it more times than I can count, but I never get tired of watching. The photography is unbelievable. Such intense colors and amazing clarity. How did they get the lighting right and the focus so perfect and on and on...

A definite must see/treat.

Wow, I really enjoyed watching that! I really liked the part where the hummingbird twists around while flying to chase the insect. It's amazing what technology has allowed us to see about the natural world. I am totally passionate about it too!
