Long-tailed sylph, Green Crowned Brilliant, Speckled Hummingbird, Peruvian Racket-tail

This iridescent tail belongs to the long-tailed sylph, a most impressive bird. I love the little tuft of white feathers at his butt!

Peruvian Racket-tail, Green Crowned Brilliant, Speckled Hummingbird

I know that I keep posting the same birds repeatedly, but this racket tail is one I especially like. It is so different from the sorts of hummers I'm used to seeing in the US.
