Sparkling Violetear
Colibri coruscans
-0.17, -78.48
Field Notes
Description:
A "sparkling" hummingbird that is basically green with brown wings.
Habitat:
This one was seen sitting on a fence of a local resident in downtown Quito, Ecuador, elevation 2,850 m. With all the flowing bushes, shrubs and fence climbers, it is a hummingbird fan's delight.
Notes:
Unfortunately, I don't know hummingbirds. While this isn't exactly like what Wiki shows, it is as close as I could get considering Quito is at an altitude over 9,000 feet.
