Масковый крючкоклюв
Masked Flowerpiercer (Diglossa cyanea) is classified as Least Concern (LC) on the IUCN Red List. Widespread and abundant across its range, with stable populations and no immediate conservation concerns.
Шиферный крючкоклюв
A medium-sized flowerpiercer of humid Andean cloud forest and forest edges from Colombia south to Bolivia, white-sided flowerpiercers have distinctive white flank patches contrasting with dark grey-blue plumage. Like all flowerpiercers, they use their sharply hooked and slightly upturned bill to pierce the base of tubular flowers and steal nectar without pollinating — earning them the reputation as nectar thieves. Found at elevations of 1,500–3,500 meters, they are commonly encountered in Andean gardens and forest edges.
