Spotted
The White-bellied Emerald is a striking hummingbird recognized by its brilliant green upperparts contrasting with a distinct white belly. This color pattern makes it relatively easy to identify.
Where to spot
Primarily inhabits open woodlands, forest edges, and gardens across its South American range, often close to water sources.
How to spot
Its white belly is a key identification feature, visible even in flight. Look for it hovering gracefully in front of flowers or perched on small, exposed branches.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, frequently observed visiting flowers or sugar feeders. Most active in the early morning and late afternoon.
