"There's an Orange-Throat!" 

"Where?"

"Right over there!"

Everyone in the group was seeing them, but I couldn't spot one if my life depended on it.  I knew right then that that the Orange-Throat would be my nemesis herp for this trip.  I finally laid eyes on one, a short distance away, and got one poor shot with 18x zoom.
