Stunning hummer! It’s so damn beautiful. I looked it up in Wikipedia:

“The velvet-purple coronet (Boissonneaua jardini) is a species of hummingbird in the "brilliants", tribe Heliantheini in subfamily Lesbiinae. It is found in Colombia and Ecuador.[3][4]

Now how did the species get to be in the subfamily of Lesbinae? Was it discovered on the Island of ales is in Greece?
