November 17, 2022

Nicolas Reusens, 47, from Bogota, Sweden was in the mountains of Quito, Ecuador when he got up close and personal with a sword-billed hummingbird.

"Short video of my encounter in ultra slow motion with the Ensifera ensifera, the hummingbird that has the longest bird's beak in the world in relation to the total length of its body," Resusens said.

"It wasn't dangerous at all, but the flying skills of this bird were just plain amazing," he said.
