Witness the enchanting sight of an immature male Bee Hummingbird, perched delicately on a vine in Zapata Peninsula.

Its beautiful plumage adds a touch of elegance to these tropical surroundings. As you continue your journey, be amazed by Anthracothorax dominicus -the Antillean mango- hovering gracefully amidst blossoming flowers. Its iridescent feathers shimmer under sunlight, creating a mesmerizing spectacle. Intriguing melodies resonate from Loxigilla violacea -the Greater Antillean bullfinch- as it flits between branches. Its vibrant red plumage contrasts against lush green foliage, showcasing nature's artistic palette. Prepare for an extraordinary encounter with two hummingbird species: The majestic Antillean crested hummingbird and ruby-topaz hummingbird; their aerial acrobatics leave you awe-inspired. Their vivid colors blend harmoniously with their surroundings while they compete for nectar-rich blooms.
