- 私達がMonteverdeのハチドリ園に行ったら、設置された蜜ビンにたくさんのハチドリが集まり飛び交っていました。 ハチドリは人間を全く恐れません。蜜ビンの近くで指を差し出すとそれに止り蜜を吸ったりします。小雨模様だったので暗く、 太陽の光を反射するきらびやかな羽の色は見えませんでしたが、近くから写真を撮れたのでそれなりに明瞭な画像を得られました。
- When we went to the hummingbird garden of Monteverde, many hummingbirds were gathering and flew around installed honey bottles. They were not shy of human beings at all and they ate honey perching on my fingers when I hold them out. It was dark because of rainy day and brilliant color of the feather by the reflection of solar light was not seen, but I could get certain clear images because I was able to take photos nearby.
