Very  beautiful and great colour! Does this tree have a lot of thorns, or only a small amount?

Do you have Erythrina falcata growing in your area? If so, can you post some pictures of it in habitat please? This is a tree I want to grow here.

Great pictures of beautiful Minas Gerais, Thank You.   I had to expand the first pic to see the picturesque countryside in the background. Farming on a giant scale. Looks like hundreds of hectares of soybean back there.

  That first hummer is special one . A big tropical hummer with a long tail. That bird may be  a swallow-tail ( beija-flor-tesoura).

Beautiful, could it be Erythrina velutina? ( if that species occurs in your area)

Caixeta, Silas_S., the unidentified erythrina shown after the white E, species,  has flowers and unopened buds that resemble E. sandwicensis.  Well established in Hawaii.      These Erythrina pics from Caixeta show no signs of either tip borer OR gall wasp damage.  I wonder if Minas-Gerais has low humidity something like California.

Second thought was E. sandwicensis but velutina would be the closest possible match since it occurs naturally in Brazil, though further north. This species also occurs on the Galapagos as well ( Pollinated by Finches there). Both look similar. 

From what is pictured via sites like inaturalist, ( honestly, not all that many E. velutina observations atm ) unopened buds on E. velutina have a velvet-like fuzz covering them, it also appears as the individual buds aren't held as tightly in the cluster compared to E. sandwicensis.  Could certainly be Wiliwili however..

On the Farm Muricy has a tree of Erythrina sandwicencis , should bloom in a few days , I will post when in bloom . I think as Nathan opined it should be Erythrina velutina even .
