The rufous-tailed hummingbird (Amazilia tzacatl) is a medium-sized perky, active and aggressive species that occurs in a variety of habitats. It prefers open scrubby areas, gardens and plantations. It regularly visits nectar-feeders. It forages for nectar on many types of flowering plants; Hamelia, Heliconia and Cephaelis. Males vigorously defend foraging sites. Studies by University of Missouri researchers show that aggression by males tapers off if intruders vastly outsize the combative individual. Smaller intruders are vigorously attacked. More

The female Rufous-tailed Hummingbird is entirely responsible for nest building and incubation. She lays two white eggs in a compact cup nest constructed from plant-fibre and dead leaves 1-6 m high on a thin horizontal twig. Incubation takes 15-19 days, and fledging another 20-26. The food of this species is nectar, taken from a variety of flowers, including Heliconias and bananas. Like other hummingbirds it also takes small insects as an essential source of protein. More
