Hummingbird Art

The hummingbird is one of the smallest birds in the world which is known by the humming sound that it creates by flapping its wings at intense speeds. It can hover in the air while flying and its wings can move at around 50 times per second. It can also achieve incredible speeds and it can pass more than 15 meters in one second. It has a very high metabolism rate and can go into a relaxed state of torpor at night, where it can slow down its metabolism to conserve energy while resting. The main diet of hummingbirds is mostly nectar from flowers, and they use the energy by extracting the sugar from the collected nectar. There are currently more than 330 hummingbird species in the world and many of them can co-exist in certain areas, mostly Andes, as they require the same kind of food.
