About These Birds
Anna's Hummingbird
Anna's hummingbird is the most common hummingbird along the Pacific coast and one of only three species resident in the United States year-round. Males perform spectacular dive displays, plummeting from 40 meters and pulling up with a loud chirp produced by tail feathers. Their body temperature can drop to near ambient at night to conserve energy.

A medium-sized hummingbird (13-14 cm) endemic to the western Andes of Colombia at 3,100-3,500 m. Males have a glittering golden-green forehead. Nectarivore of cloud forest. Critically Endangered due to extremely small known range in the Farallones del Citará.
