Magenta-throated Woodstar of Costa Rica, 2019

Magenta-throated Woodstar of Costa Rica. A lovely hummingbird!
Costa Rica is a wonderful place to view hummingbirds. These birds feed on nectar and to do so have evolved the ability to hover and fly backwards. This and their striking colours make them a delight to watch.
This Magenta-throated woodstar is endemic to Costa Rica and Panama.
