Why it matters
The Moustached Flowerpiercer is a distinctive member of the tanager family, named for the subtle, bright patches of color at the corners of its bill. This species is native to the high-altitude forests of the Andes, where its uniquely curved, hook-tipped beak allows it to pierce the base of flowers to reach nectar without needing to pollinate the plant.
