Description
This exciting uncommon male, is among my favorite hummingbirds. When he courts his desired female, he circles her, singing and showing off his fanned tail. Also, when ever he lands to perch, he spreads open his fiery colored wings for a few seconds, as if wanting others to appreciate his beauty.
