Lesser Violetear 503_7554.jpg - a photo on Flickriver

            A beautiful hummingbird.

Their habitat is in high-altitude forests  3,900-7,500 ft ( 1,200-2,300 m).  But sometimes, in search of food sources, these birds down as low as 1,600 ft (500 m).  

This bird species spends most of its days in solitude. They go to great lengths just to defend a feeding territory.
