I find REVIs especially difficult to photograph. For about one week in the spring they are low in the trees foraging, but hardly ever perch long enough. The rest of the spring and summer they are up in the canopy. This bird was more cooperative, though the red eye is not prominent because of the lack of direct sunlight.

I agree – this time of year the REVIs are hard to find, although we hear them calling all the time. Glad you were able to get a shot of one.
