Violet-capped Woodnymphs inhabit a wide range of habitats from untouched forests, to scrub, to suburban and city gardens. They gather nectar from both native and non-native flowers and also hunt for insects. During certain parts of the year, Violet-capped Woodnymphs migrate short distances. Males have a bluish violet cap and sparkle with dark green above and gold-green below. Females are dark greenish above and off-white below. During the breeding season, these woodnymphs adorn the outside of their nests with ferns and lichen.

These gorgeous violet flowers are actually impostors, they are not violets, but that doesn't matter because they are beautiful. African violet flowers get their name from their resemblance to true violets (Violaceae), but they are actually a completely different genus: Saintpaulia ionantha.

On/Off - Thank you very much for the visit and taking the time to comment or fave! Much appreciated!

The head is also green but much like the throat feathers of a hummingbird, light needs to hit it just right. Garden flowers and barn in the background. Nikon D500 at 380mm, f/5.6
