One cannot help but be captivated by the iridescent throat patch, which shimmers in either black or green hues depending on the angle of view. This enchanting display adds a touch of mystique to this already captivating creature. With long wings spread wide and tail feathers elegantly fanned out, it becomes evident why hummingbirds are known for their agility and aerial prowess.
