These birds are vibrant and colorful, with a striking green body and a yellowish bill and iris that make them stand out. Males are especially eye-catching, featuring a pale grey head with a black nape (the back of their head), a bright yellow throat, and stunning golden yellow and pink feathers under their tails. On the other hand, females and young birds have entirely green plumage, which helps them blend in with their surroundings. This beautiful coloring not only makes the males look impressive but also helps the females stay camouflaged, especially when they are nesting or caring for their young!
