The broad-billed hummingbird (Cynanthus latirostris) is a small hummingbird that resides in Mexico and the southwestern United States. Males and females have different features (see sexual dimorphism). The juveniles resemble the female adult more than the male adult. The broad-billed hummingbird is a bright green bird. The broad, red bill in both sexes and the male's blue gorget are useful for identification. The bird is also known for its other common names – the Colibrí Pico Ancho in Spanish and Colibri circé in French. Wikipedia →
