Shaking off a cloud of pollen, this female Juan Fernández hummingbird darts between the Redvein Flowering Maples in a stunning display only possible to witness on 1 small Chilean island in the Pacific - San Juan Bautista also known as Robinson Crusoe Island. This bird is critically endangered with only a few thousand thought adults on the island.
The males are a deep chimney red with gold, iridescent crowns while the females, strikingly different, white with speckled emerald and blue feathers.
Spectacular, and definitely a place to put high on your list!
