Why it matters
The Rufous-booted Racket-tail is distinguished by the two elongated, racquet-tipped feathers that extend from its deeply forked tail. This hummingbird is native to the Andean regions, where it is prized by birders for its unique appearance and the feathered "boots" on its legs that give the species its name.
