Description
Bananaquits are probably the most common and most active birds in Puerto Rico. They are literally in every habitat! That said, it's tricky to get them to stay still long enough for a photograph. Fortunately, this one did!

Beautiful bird, and a wonderful setting. Many birds are hard to catch sitting still. I always wondered why they called this bird "bananaquit". Did he stop eating bananas?
Candice Lowther replied:
I’m guessing they like banana flowers. Every time I see them they are near flowers. Thank you!
