Sword-billed Hummingbird
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[Photo] Sword-billed Hummingbird (Sword-billed Hummingbird) illustration cropped from the 99th plate illustration from Ernst Haeckel's Kunstformen der Natur (1904).

Sword-billed Hummingbird (Ensifera ensifera) is a species of hummingbird from South America and the sole member of the genus Ensifera.

It is noted as the only species of bird to have a bill longer than the rest of its body. This adaptation is to feed on flowers with long corollas such as Passiflora mixta. The tongue is therefore also unusually long.
