Day 172 Is It a Bee or a Bird?

This little guy sounds just like a bumble bee and is close to being that size too. The Purple-throated Woodstar was nicknamed Little Bee for our entire trip. It was amazing how much noise those little wings made. This was, by far, the most difficult hummingbird to photograph. They feed on the go and never land. You could hear a very loud buzzing as they came to the feeders.
