Hummingbirds are little, brilliantly coloured birds found in the Americas.
They are well-known for their capacity to hover in mid-air and beat their wings at speeds of up to 80 beats per second.
They can also fly backwards, upside down, and sideways.
Hummingbirds are found in about 360 different species.
They have long, slender beaks that are ideal for nectar eating. Their tongues are also lengthy and forked, allowing them to access nectar inside bloom
