Sixty-five giant hummingbirds, or quindes as they are known in Quechua, are landed in Otorongo Plaza on the Tomebamba River. The work of Ecuadorian artist Cordova Nixon, the sculptures, some of which measure six feet in height, are decorated with a variety of indigenous and modern designs. The sculptures were first displayed in Quito earlier in the year. The exhibition is called "Paseos de los Quindes, 2012," "Hummingbird Tour"

They were amazing to say the least. I should have taken more pictures, but here are some of them in the Photo area.
