The incredibly beautiful Green Violet Eared Hummingbird in the central mountains of Mexico. This is a rare picture of a medium sized hummingbird that is very elusive and shy and is one special bird. Green Violetear is a Medium hummingbird, dark metallic green (appearing black in low light) with blue-violet cheek and breast patches. Wings have black primaries. Squared tail is blue-green with black band. Slightly decurved bill is black. Direct, hovering flight with rapid wing beats. Green Violetear can be found in mountain forests, forest clearings, and forest edges; common from central Mexico southward into northern South America. Vagrants may show up almost anywhere, with numerous records from the southern, central, and eastern regions of the U.S., and as far north as Alberta and Ontario.
