Video with Feathers
 

Plans called for "Hummingbirds: Beauty and the Beasts" to be released in hi-def in 2008, but the video is being down-converted to standard def because the majority of our audience members still view content in that format and don't have hi-def DVD players.  When that changes, we will offer hi-def content.

FUNNY BIT: When he saw that "Hooked on Galapagos Beasts,"  which was to have been our next program, is "NOT COMING NEXT" because "customers tell AVC they prefer another hummingbird video," one writer who wanted "Galapagos Beasts" noted ruefully that the "HUMMINGBIRD MAFIA" had prevailed.  We can all use a few laughs.  If you have something to share about anything on our web site and give us a giggle, we'll (eventually) post it with or without attribution -- your choice.  Click on Contact Us to send your comments, questions or suggestions.  Time permitting, "Hooked on Galapagos Beasts" will be produced in 2009.

Great and Magnificent Frigatebirds breed in the Galapagos Islands, but not before a male attracts a female that decides his red gular pouch is sexy enough to warrant her attention. Galapagos Penguins and Flycatchers, Waved Albatrosses, Red-billed Tropicbirds, and many other avifauna delight nature buffs and bird watchers alike.
