	Lazuline sabrewing - Campylopterus falcatus: More Information - ARKive
		Sabrewings are large hummingbirds of the tropical New World, which are known for bearing some of the most glittering plumage and colourful adornments in the bird world (4).
		Indeed, the lazuline sabrewing earns its common name for the beautiful azure, lazuline blue plumage on its throat and breast, which is coupled with glittering green upperparts and belly, bluer on the crown, and a chestnut-brown tail, all with a dazzling iridescent sheen (2) (5).
		Females of other sabrewing species are known to lay two white eggs in relatively large cup nests on low horizontal branches, usually over streams (4), and it is likely that this species displays similar reproductive characteristics.
