Inagua woodstar

The Inagua woodstar (Nesophlox lyrura), also called the lyre-tailed hummingbird, is a species of hummingbird in tribe Mellisugini of subfamily Trochilinae, the "bee hummingbirds". It is endemic to the two islands of the Inagua district of the Bahamas.

The Inagua woodstar is 7.8 to 8.2 cm (3.1 to 3.2 in) long and weighs 2.1 to 2.7 g (0.074 to 0.095 oz). Both sexes have a short, slightly decurved, black bill and a small white spot behind the eye. The male's forehead and gorget are glittering reddish purple. Its upperparts are iridescent green, the breast whitish, and the belly mixed rufous and green. The tail is very deeply forked. Its central feathers are green and the others have cinnamon-rufous inner webs. The outermost feathers are lyre-shaped. Females have dull green upperparts, pale gray chin and throat with small green spots, a whitish chest, and a rufous belly. Their tail is rounded; the central feathers are green and the rest cinnamon with a wide black band near the end.
