Black-eared Fairy (Heliothryx auritus) - 15&17Feb2026

Black-eared Fairy is the South American version of the Purple-crowned Fairy of Central America.  They are the only two species in the genus.  The Black-eared flavor has a wide range across the Amazon Basin and the southeast of Brazil, where I saw mine.  The first photo is from Boa Nova National Park and the second from Mata do Cruzeiro, both in Bahia State, Brazil.
