About These Birds
Honduran Emerald
A medium-sized hummingbird (9-10 cm) endemic to the interior highlands of Honduras. Turquoise-green plumage. Nectarivore of dry thorn forest and scrub. Classified as Endangered due to extremely small range and ongoing habitat loss. Honduras's only endemic hummingbird.
Annakolibri
Der Annakolibri ist der häufigste Kolibri entlang der Pazifikküste und eine von nur drei Kolibriarten, die ganzjährig in den USA verweilen. Männchen zeigen spektakuläre Sturzflüge aus 40 Metern Höhe und fangen sich mit einem lauten, von den Schwanzfedern erzeugten Zwitschern ab. Nachts kann ihre Körpertemperatur nahezu auf Umgebungstemperatur absinken, um Energie zu sparen.
