Caught in a Moment - The Dazzling Black-Crested Coquette!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this vibrant snapshot, we witness the enchanting beauty of the Black-Crested Coquette, a hummingbird from the Trochilidae family. With its iridescent feathers shimmering under the tropical sun, this tiny avian wonder is truly a sight to behold. Native to Belize, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, and Nicaragua, these lively creatures thrive in subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and montane forests. However, they are also known to adapt remarkably well even in heavily degraded former forest areas. This particular photograph was taken during January in Costa Rica's cloud forest - an ethereal setting that perfectly complements the bird's exquisite appearance. The black crest atop its head adds an air of elegance as it flits gracefully among colorful blooms. The image captures a single coquette mid-flight with wings frozen like delicate brushstrokes against a lush green backdrop. Its slender beak hints at its insatiable appetite for nectar from flowers that dot its habitat. As part of Central America's rich wildlife tapestry, this creature serves as a reminder of nature's boundless creativity and diversity. So let your imagination take flight alongside this mesmerizing Black-Crested Coquette as it dances through the rainforests of Central America!
