Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

Large strikingly-patterned hummingbird of the Atlantic Forest understory, but also visits feeders along forest edges. Note the distinctive bicolored bill with a hooked tip, pale eyebrow, and an orange throat bleeding into a pin-striped breast. The tail is dark with orange sides. The female is slightly smaller with a shorter and more curved bill.
