Meet The Rainbow-Bearded Thornbill Hummingbird, The Beautiful Glittery Bird (10 Pics)

These birds glittering feathers are out of this world.

Marvel at the beautifully rich blue, green, turquoise, yellow, red, and pink colours.

The rainbow-bearded thornbill wears a rainbow of colour on its face.

This is mother nature at her best.

With a dark green head, a long, crest on top, and a white dot behind each eye.

These tiny birds have long dark purple eye-catching tails with white tips at the corners.

This bird is a species of hummingbird in the Trochilidae family. They can be found in Ecuador, Colombia, and Peru.

Rainbow-bearded Thornbills have short, straight, bills that allow them to feed from small flowers which grow in abundance in their high-altitude habitats.
