Boissonneaua
Boissonneaua is a small genus of hummingbirds in the family Trochilidae. They are found in humid Andean forests from western Venezuela to southern Peru. They have a straight black bill, contrasting outer rectrices, and a distinctive habit of quickly lifting both wings up shortly after landing, thereby revealing their rufous underwing coverts.

gollark: Not *really*. In languages with an abstract model that doesn't specify limited memory sizes, yes, but PotatOS Assembly Languageā¢'s addresses are 16 bits, so you can't address any more RAM than that.
gollark: Technically it's not even going to be Turing-complete because of the limited address space, unlike in BF.
gollark: I have an amazing FIVE INSTRUCTIONS implemented!
gollark: Soon you'll be able to use PotatOS Assembly Languageā¢ to program things if you don't like Lua.
gollark: I mean, if you dislike Lua that much, you can... use that.
