This image of a Green Violetear was cropped heavily and shot under a heavy overcast, so I was surprised that it is only moderately noisy.
The Green Violetears were common in the gardens of the hotel where we were staying and frequently perched in open areas. I found the larger Magnificent Hummingbirds that were also common there to be much more combative and always driving each other and the other hummingbirds off of favored perches.

Great work of the makeup artist - if you see how many thick long hair the model has - the bald head is unbelievable ...

I've seen many brown stink bugs but this is the first Green one.
The green stink bug or green soldier bug (Acrosternum hilare) is a stink bug belonging to the family Pentatomidae.
According to Dr. David Rider of North Dakota State University the generic name is wrong. The genus name Acrosternum should be restricted to a handful of Old World, small, pale green species that live in dry arid areas. The larger, brighter green species that live in both the Old and New Worlds should actually go by the generic name Chinavia, therefore this species should be called Chinavia hilaris.
It is found in orchards, gardens, woodlands and crop fields throughout North America, feeding with their needle-like mouthparts on the juices of a wide variety of plants from May until the arrival of frost. Adults develop a preference for developing seeds and thus become crop pests (tomato, bean, pea, cotton, corn, soybean, eggplant). When no seeds are present, they also feed on stems and foliage, thus damaging several fruit trees, such as the apple, cherry, orange and peach trees.
Its color is typically bright green, with narrow yellow, orange, or reddish edges.
It is a large, shield-shaped bug with an elongate, oval form and a length between 13-18 mm. It can be differentiated from the species Nezara by its black outermost three antennal segments. Its anterolateral (= in front and away from the middle) pronotal margin is rather straight and not strongly arced such as in Acrosternum pennsylvanicum
Both adults and nymphs have large stink glands on the underside of the thorax extending more than half-way to the edge of the metapleuron. They discharge large amounts of this foul-smelling liquid when disturbed.
[edit] Reproduction
Second instar
They attach their keg-shaped eggs on the underside of foliage in double rows of twelve eggs or more. The green stink bug produces one generation in the North and two generations in the South. The early instar nymphs are rather brightly colored and striped, turning green when approaching adulthood.
I love orange. And blue. All shades of blue. Yellow is lovely, too. And don't forget red. But you know... green. Green is really, really nice. You know what? I think I love my world to be colourful :)

This is a really green photo.
This I found in one of my folder. This photo i took soon after i got my camera. I was in Portugal as an AFS student and I stayed with a family that had a big grape farm, there were many pools and most of them were fool of these green seeds and every once in a while you could see a frog in there. This time i walked really slowly to the pool because I wanted to get a photo of one of the frogs, and I was really lucky because 2 seconds after i took the photo the frog was gone.
Some may call it luck, but i guess its just my talent :P

This fella was being harassed by a Pileated and took refuge in the tree top. A distant shot and a big crop. I know it has a twig in front of its bill, but I don't change things as I've seen them.....besides I would do a lousy job cloning the twig out :)
All the flowers have gone away with Spring, I suppose! But we were on a desperate hunt for flowers to contrast with my dress...
