Description

The masked flowerpiercer (Diglossa cyanea) is a South American bird in the tanager family. It is found in humid montane forest and scrub in the Andes at high elevation. This one was photographed in Ecuador on the eastern side of the continental divide in Ecuador at an altitude of 2700 m (8858 ft). Flowerpiercers got their name from the fact that they have a sharp hook on the tip of their upper mandible which they use to slice open the base of flowers to get at the nectar. They have deep rich blue plumage overall with a black mask and bright red eyes.
