Cuban doves and smallest hummingbird

This video says about itself:

Zapata Wren – Ferminia cerverai

A bird singing. Zapata Peninsula, Cuba (Monotypic species).

Recorded 1 August 2004.

15 March 2017, at the Zapata peninsula; the day after 14 March, the day I had seen the Zapata wren; we went to a Zapata peninsula forest edge where many doves were present.

Including Zenaida doves.

And blue-headed quail doves. They live only in Cuba.

And grey-headed quail doves. Also only in Cuba.

There were also other birds: ovenbirds. And Greater Antillean grackles.

A bit further, along the road, was a red-shouldered blackbird. Another Cuban endemic species.

Then, we went to see the world’s smallest bird, the bee hummingbird, again.

Cuban emerald hummingbirds were present too.

A northern mockingbird sang from the top of an electricity pole.

We continued our journey to Havana.

So, stay tuned!
