Green Hermit (Phaethornis guy)
..a large species of hermit hummingbird (Phaethornithinae) which is known to be a resident breeder from southern Central America (mainly Costa Rica and Panama) south to northern South America, ranging from north-eastern Venezuela and Trinidad to the northern Andes of eastern Peru. Nominate subspecies green hermits are found in Venezuela and Trinidad. while the western P. g. apicalis is encountered along the Andes. Green hermits typically inhabit forest undergrowth, usually near water, and prefer hilly areas. Like most hummingbirds, green hermits feed on nectar. Which is taken form a variety of foodplants including Justicia umbrosa, Raisea spicata, Pitcarinia brittonian and others.

Green Hermit (Phaethornis guy)
is a large species of hummingbird native to Central and northern South America. Like several other hummingbird species the males have a long tail which is used in display. This species actually displays in a communal lek with males competing for a female. They can often be seen near water/hilly areas in primary rainforests, but due to deforestation they are forced to inhabit secondary forests.
