the opposite hummingbird

I'm going to continue on the hummingbirds of Yanacocha theme, today's is Shining Sunbeam.

Most hummingbirds are green, this one ... orange.

They would frequently hold the wings back for a moment upon alighting.

The other opposite effect?  Most hummingbirds have an iridescent throat.  This one? An iridescent ... rump.


Because who doesn't want rainbows emanating from their posteriors?
