White-throated Mountaingem - a photo on Flickriver

            This hummingbird is a male White-throated Mountaingem (Lampornis castaneoventris) which is only found in high altitude cloud forest of Panama and Costa Rica.  Moreover, the population in Costa Rica is a distinct subspecies cinereicauda, which may merit full species status.  This would make it one of the most geographically restricted birds in the world.  This male was photographed at Savegre in Costa Rica and is of the subspecies cinereicauda, which is also known as Grey-tailed Mountaingem.
