Черногорлый манго

A large, striking hummingbird of tropical forests from southern Mexico to Argentina, black-throated mangos have dramatic sexual dimorphism — males display glittering black throat and breast with violet and green flanks and a bold purple tail, while females are white below with a central black stripe. Inhabiting forest edges, clearings, and gardens, they aggressively defend flowering trees. Males perform spectacular aerial display flights at treetop height. Listed as Least Concern across their broad neotropical range.

Chives

Chives (Allium schoenoprasum) are a perennial bulb-forming herb in the family Amaryllidaceae, widely distributed across temperate regions of Europe, Asia, and North America. They represent the smallest species in the genus Allium, which also includes onions, garlic, and leeks, and are the only Allium species native to both the Old and New Worlds. Chives produce slender, hollow, cylindrical leaves and round, pale purple to lilac flower heads atop leafless stalks, both of which are edible and valued for their mild onion flavour. In the wild, chives grow in a range of habitats including rocky slopes, mountain meadows, riverbanks, and forest edges, typically preferring cool, moist conditions with well-drained soils. They spread both by seed and by vegetative division of their bulb clumps, forming dense patches. As one of the classic fines herbes of French cuisine, chives have been cultivated for culinary use for over 5,000 years and are now grown worldwide in gardens and as a commercial crop. The flowers are also attractive to bees and other pollinators. The IUCN classifies Allium schoenoprasum as Least Concern, with widespread natural populations throughout its native range. While not threatened globally, localised populations may be affected by habitat loss or overgrazing in alpine or subalpine settings.
