Inagua Woodstar

Nesophlox lyrura

Least Concern

The Inagua Woodstar is a nectar-feeding hummingbird of the Bahamas. It also takes tiny insects and spiders for protein, using fast hovering flight, rapid wingbeats, and a long bill to work flowers and defend feeding areas. It is currently not considered globally threatened, though healthy native vegetation and flowering plants remain important.
