The Long-tailed Woodnymph is a rare and striking hummingbird, particularly distinguished by the male's remarkably elongated and deeply forked tail. It exhibits brilliant iridescent plumage.
Where to spot
Endemic to a small, specific region of eastern Brazil, typically found in humid Atlantic rainforests.
How to spot
Observation requires patience due to its rarity and restricted range. Focus on humid forest interiors and edges, looking for the male's incredibly long, deeply forked tail and overall green and blue iridescence.
When to spot
Most active during the day, particularly during the morning and late afternoon when foraging for nectar.

The male's tail can be almost as long as its body, a key feature for identifying this rare species.
