Stripe-throated Hermit

A small hermit hummingbird of humid forest understory from southern Mexico through Central America to northern South America, stripe-throated hermits have green upper parts with a distinctive white-striped face and a curved bill adapted for Heliconia and ginger flowers. They follow fixed trap-line nectar routes through dense forest. Males aggregate at leks where they sing persistent repetitive songs to attract females. They are important pollinators of understory Heliconia and Costus plants across their range.

Коричневобрюхий солнечный колибри

A large hermit hummingbird of humid Andean foothill forests in Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia, tawny-bellied hermits have warm tawny-buff underparts contrasting with greenish-bronze upper parts and a long, strongly curved bill. Found at elevations between 300–1,500 meters in montane forest understory. Like all large hermits, they are trap-line foragers visiting long routes of widely spaced flowers. Males assemble at traditional lek sites where they produce loud, repetitive vocalizations to attract females.
