Bronzy Hermit

Glaucis aeneus

The Bronzy Hermit (Glaucis aeneus) is a medium-sized hummingbird found in the tropical forests of Central and South America. This species is known for its distinctive bronze-green plumage and long, slightly curved bill. The Bronzy Hermit is a solitary bird, often seen foraging for nectar in the understory of humid forests. It also feeds on small insects and spiders. This species is an important pollinator of many flowering plants within its range. The Bronzy Hermit is not currently considered to be at risk, but habitat loss and deforestation are potential threats to its long-term survival.
