Measuring just a few inches in length and weighing a mere 7.5 grams (0.26 ounces), the narrow-billed tody boasts a captivating profile characterized by its relatively large head, lengthy bill, and abbreviated tail. This distinctive combination of features sets it apart and distinguishes it from other bird species, including its close relative, the Broad-billed Tody.
The narrow-billed tody’s appearance is a symphony of colors, creating an eye-catching display that captivates all who are fortunate enough to observe it. Adorned in bright green hues on its upperparts and head, the tody exudes a sense of vibrancy that instantly draws attention. However, its most remarkable feature is the stunning carmine red chin and throat, separated by a subtle mallar stripe.
