Talamanca hummingbird

The Talamanca hummingbird (Eugenes spectabilis) is a large species of hummingbird, in the family Trochilidae. Some taxonomic authorities, such as the International Ornithological Committee, split the magnificent hummingbird (genus Eugenes), in which case the nominate subspecies fulgens is renamed Rivoli's hummingbird and spectabilis is named the admirable hummingbird. Other taxonomic authorities have not recognized the split. The range of the Talamanca hummingbird is from Costa Rica to Panama. This male was photographed in the Mount Totumas cloud forest in Panama.
