Photo Description: Every morning, I noticed this Bananaquit came to our Aloe Vera Flowers, and it seemed to be sucking the nectar out. So one morning, I decided to try to photograph it. I woke up early and positioned myself, and then waited. Not too long after the Bananaquit came in, with its beak and head all covered with pollen, even before eating from our flowers. While I was shooting, it was jumping around the aloe vera and stretching to reach some of the petals, ended up in this pose, and that's how this shot was made.
