Snowcap hummingbird
Live in humid Central American forests from Honduras to Panama.
female has duller metallic colours without a white cap.
El Tapir Reserve and Rancho Naturalista are world-class Costa Rican locations to see hummingbirds, especially the striking, jewel-like Snowcap hummingbird.

Extreme close-up of a tiny bird with striking magenta-pink iridescent feathers. Its head features a distinctive white crest and long dark needle-like beak. Perched on a thin branch against a blurred green background, the bird's plumage catches the light to display subtle color shifts from deep burgundy to flashes of copper. Its small dark eye is just visible beneath its crown feathers.

A painting of a snowcap, a type of humming bird, settled on to a fuzzy, horizontal plant limb. Its beak has some pollen stuck to it, and its eye is closed in satisfaction.

This male Snowcap was getting ready for bed last night at @tapirvalley.bsky.social. Very low light, but he was very relaxed.
