About These Birds
Honduran Emerald
A medium-sized hummingbird (9-10 cm) endemic to the interior highlands of Honduras. Turquoise-green plumage. Nectarivore of dry thorn forest and scrub. Classified as Endangered due to extremely small range and ongoing habitat loss. Honduras's only endemic hummingbird.
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.
