"What a radiant little gem! The Green Violetear is a stunning, metallic, green hummingbird from Costa Rica. The Green Violetear is a medium-sized, metallic green hummingbird, common in montane regions in Central and South America. It is one of four species of violetears (Colibri), all of which have a patch of elongated violet feathers on the sides of the head. They inhabit highland forest borders, clearings and highland pastures. Green Violetears usually are solitary, foraging and singing alone."
Breathtaking! Love the little tiny particles on the background. :)
