Mini African Violet flowers. Flowers are a bit bigger than the other times it flowered. Might be because there are a lot less. I hope you are having a happy day.
Costa Rica has over 52 species of hummingbirds and this is one of my favorites. Love the white tail and the intense violet iridescent body feathers.
Being one of the largest hummingbirds in Central America it also dominates the local food sources.
Bosque de Paz, Costa Rica

The violet turaco, also known as the violaceous plantain eater (Musophaga violacea), is a large turaco, a group of African otidimorphae.
These are unmistakable birds, but shy and often inconspicuous in the treetops. They are approximately 48 cm (19 in) long, including a long tail and a 4 cm (1.6 in) bill. They boast a winglength of 21 cm (8.3 in) and weigh approximately 360 g. The plumage is glossy violet, except for the yellow forehead, chestnut crown and white ear coverts; the bill is thick and red. In flight, the violet turaco's crimson primary flight feathers contrast with the violet plumage. The red colour in the wings is typical of turacos.
Grows in eastern tropical Africa.
African Violets come in many colours, blue, violet , pink, red-violet, lavendar-pink and white. Some varieties produce more than one row of petals.
Have a happy day.
A very distant shot of a swallow that I don't end up seeing that often. Not the best so I better look harder. 😆
