Muchas gracias por tu comentario, afortunadamente cerca de mi casa hay varios de ellos, solo colocando un poco de fruta en el patio aparecen

Que fotos mas fabulosas, es un pajaro divino, yo solo le pude tomar una foto pero me dejo impresionada con su belleza. Gracias por poner estas fotografias tan claras y preciosas aqui, Ismael Chaves.
