Volcano Hummingbird in Costa Rica
Selasphorus flammula
The most reliable place to see the volcano hummingbird in Costa Rica is the high volcanoes — Poás, Irazú, and Turrialba — and the Cerro de la Muerte highlands, best Year-round. A highland endemic, so elevation matters more than region: at 1,850–3,500 m it is one of the most dependable specialties, and its gorget colour changes by volcano.
