Tawny-bellied Hermit

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.
