About These Birds
Pink-throated Brilliant
El colibrí brillante de garganta rosada es un colibrí poco conocido de las estribaciones andinas de Ecuador y Perú. El macho tiene partes superiores verdes brillantes y un gorjal rosado iridiscente. Se alimenta del néctar de flores en el bosque nublado andino. La información sobre su comportamiento y ecología es escasa. La pérdida de hábitat en los bosques de las estribaciones andinas supone una amenaza para esta especie de distribución restringida.
