Meet The Rufous-Crested Coquette – A Unique Chubby Little Hummingbird (12 Pics)

The main diets of these striking hummingbirds are nectar. Their food sources are colored, scented small flowers on trees, herbs, shrubs, and epiphytes. These birds, however, sometimes eat insects and spiders. With this eating habit, the female rufous-crested croquette prefers living in subtropical or tropical lowland and montane forests at altitudes of 500m – 1,900m above sea level.
