About These Birds
Black Flowerpiercer
The Black Flowerpiercer is a small, entirely matte-black bird with a distinctively sharply hooked and upturned bill used to pierce the base of flowers and steal nectar. It inhabits high-altitude cloud forests, páramo scrub, and forest edges in the Andes of Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia, typically above 2,000 meters. It also catches small insects, making it a nectar thief rather than a pollinator.
Azure-shouldered Tanager
The Azure-shouldered Tanager is a tanager endemic to the Atlantic Forest of southeastern Brazil, weighing about 43g with a wingspan of 19.2cm. It has green plumage with striking azure-blue shoulder patches and forages in the forest canopy and edges. It feeds on fruit, nectar, and insects, often in mixed-species flocks.
