Colibrí :: Zumbar Dorado :: Puerto Rico Mango
In celebration of the newly appointed endemic bird in Boríken presenting the Puerto Rico Mango, previously known as the Antillean Mango, bringing it to 18 birds across la isla.
Wearing their crown we wish birders in their discovery see the excellence and pride this has for the acknowledgment of the precious avian friends that uniquely call Boríken home.
The Colibri or hummingbird is recognized as a sacred symbol in Taíno tribal lore as the sacred pollinator and therefore disseminator of all new life. It symbolizes the rebirth of the Taíno Indigenous people in the Caribbean diaspora. In the Caribbean the Colibri is also called Zoom Zoom, Zumbador, Pajaro Mosca and Guacariga.
From land to sea to sky each bird transmits us to new adventures and journey deeper to ourselves.

The vase was sourced directly from Mexico, via San Diego, and hand-treated with sealant to house your favorite plant babies and withstand periodic watering; as well as , a final glaze to protect the hand painted artwork.
It works great for a unique gift for nature lovers, birders, and other enthusiasts in love with what nature gifts us everyday. Although the pots give a reference to the Mexican artisan cup, jarritos, they are not designed to drink from, and should only be used for decorative purposes.
About the Ruby-throated hummingbird
A large hummingbird of forest openings, scrubland, coffee plantations, and gardens. Note that the male is largely green above and black below, with the green of the throat not bleeding into the black chest. Within its range, only Green Mango and Green-throated Carib share this species’ size, shape, and overall color. The green throat of the carib, however, extends onto the chest, while the Green Mango is entirely green below. The unique features of the female Puerto Rican and Hispaniolan emeralds by its long down-curved bill distinct this bird as an endemic to the island.. Call is a loud, high “tsit.” (source: ebird.org)
