A breeding pair foraging for nesting materials. The female is on the top right with nesting materials. Females can be distinguished from males by their white eyes. Males have dark eyes. These are the smallest songbirds in North America at 11 cm (4.3 in) in length.
As the name implies, Antillean crested hummingbird is one of the few hummingbirds with a crest. It demonstrates the general sexual dimorphism for hummingbirds where the male is bright and colorful whilst the female is more tannish and dull.[11] Males have a short straight black bill; head with green crest, tipped metallic green to bright blue-green, upperparts dull metallic bronze-green; underparts sooty black; tail black, rounded.
