Bananaquits Love Sweets
Bananaquits are tiny songbirds with a sweet tooth. Their distinctive curved bills are perfect for sipping nectar from woodland flowers and urban hummingbird feeders. These songsters are widespread in Latin America from southern Mexico to northern Uruguay — and much of the Caribbean. Their plumage colors vary by region, but Bananaquits typically have dark backs, white eyebrows and yellow bellies. Their songs are variable, too. Bananaquits have developed hundreds of local dialects!
