Among all the hummingbirds that can be observed in Manu National Park, one stands out as especially sought after by birdwatchers: the Rufous-crested Coquette<\/strong> (Lophornis delattrei<\/em>).

The Rufous-crested Coquette inhabits tropical forests in Central and South America, with a notable presence in places like Manu National Park.
