White-tufted Sunbeam

A medium-sized hummingbird (12-13 cm) found in the Andes of Peru and Bolivia at 2,700-4,000 m. Coppery plumage with white breast tufts visible during courtship display. Nectarivore of montane scrub and Polylepis woodland. A Peruvian-Bolivian endemic.

Their body temperature can drop to near ambient at night to conserve energy.
