About These Birds

Buff-bellied Hummingbird

A medium-sized hummingbird (10-11 cm) found from southern Texas through eastern Mexico to Belize and Guatemala. Green upperparts, buff-orange belly, and red bill with dark tip. Nectarivore of gardens, citrus groves, and forest edges. Common at Texas Gulf Coast feeders.

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.
