Pretty Bird

This bird actually is black and a deep purple where you see blue in this photo. Absolutely spectacular in person I spent about 20 minutes with it when it finally hopped onto my finger. I didn't catch a photo of that as I was shaking like a leaf.

And wouldn't you know I didn't catch the name of the bird.
