Blue-chinned Sapphire

Chlorestes notata notata

 

Asa Wright Nature Centre, Tunapuna-Piarco, Trinidad.

 

Male. This hummer is widespread in much of northern South America and eastern Brazil, but in most places it is not very common (and easily confused with other species). I had never managed to photograph one before my visit to Asa Wright.

 

Other name: Blue-chinned Emerald Chlorostilbon notatus
