Perhaps one of the most sophisticated fliers on the Earth, these beautiful birds weave in and out of branches without rustling a leaf. The hummingbird is both strong and beautiful, possessing a unique sort of delicate beauty and mastery that few birds can compete with.
While nothing beats observing a bird in motion, there are instances when photographers perfectly capture the beauty of this nimble bird. Take a look at these stunning photographs, alongside some intriguing facts:
Capturing the hummingbird in flight is no easy feat - this pretty bird flaps its wings as fast as 52 beats per second, making it challenging to capture its grace and swift motion clearly.
Hummingbirds may be small, but the weight of their brain makes up 4.2 percent of their body weight - the largest proportion in the bird kingdom.
The hummingbird is very smart. They can remember every flower they have been too and how long it will take a flower to refill.
Hummingbirds do not drink through their beaks. Rather, they lap up nectar with their tongues.
