Spotted
The Duida Sabrewing is a rare and highly localized hummingbird, found exclusively on the slopes of Mount Duida in southern Venezuela. Its restricted distribution makes it a species of significant interest to ornithologists.
Where to spot
Strictly endemic to Mount Duida and possibly a few adjacent tepuis (flat-topped mountains) in Amazonas state, southern Venezuela.
How to spot
Focus on the montane forests and shrublands of the tepui slopes. Look for it visiting flowering plants. Its isolation means that any sabrewing encountered in this specific habitat is likely to be this species.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Observing this species often requires expeditions to its remote and challenging tepui habitat.
This species is a 'tepui endemic,' meaning it is found only on the isolated, tabletop mountains of the Guiana Shield, which are known for their unique biodiversity.
