Heliodoxa leadbeateri
Slender majorly dark and black green hummingbird. White patch behind the eye. Short tail.
In the Botanical Garden of Topotepuy, Caracas, Venezuela. Near mountain range. At about 1500 above sea level.
There were loads of these little guys humming around the garden, hanging around the feeders. At Topotepuy about 140 species of hummingbirds have been spotted. This one sat on a branch and started to clean his features while we ( a small group of 4 year olds ) were looking at him.
