Sword-billed Hummingbird-303-Edit
High in the Andes, there’s a flower that only loves one bird.
The Red Angel’s Trumpet is no wallflower—it’s long, deep, and velvet-lined to keep out the riffraff. Bees can’t reach. Bats don’t bother. Even other hummingbirds move on.
But the Sword-billed Hummingbird?
Built for it.
He’s no speedster—slow, heavy, steering like a flying fencepost. But that bill, longer than his own body, is the perfect key for this one flower.
He hovers, pokes his sword in deep, and sips.
The flower gets pollinated. Everyone wins.
A love story written by evolution.
