About These Birds

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.

Canivet's Emerald

A small hummingbird (8-9 cm) found from Mexico through Central America to Costa Rica. Brilliant emerald-green plumage with a short, straight bill. Nectarivore of forest edges, gardens, and second growth. One of the most common small hummingbirds in Central America.
