Hummingbirds come in all shapes and sizes but one of the most spectacular are the Sylphs with their extraordinary long tails. It was difficult to tell the male Long-tailed apart from the Violet-tailed especially where they were found in the same region. The Woodstars are tiny Hummingbirds at 6-7cm, we could hear them coming as their wingbeats are loud and sound like Bees buzzing.
