Hummingbirds are the tiniest birds in the world. Some are so small they weigh less than a penny! They flap their wings super fast, which makes a humming sound. That is how they got their name.
Hummingbirds can fly forwards, backwards, and even upside down! They drink sweet nectar from flowers using their long thin beaks. Their feathers shine in beautiful colors like green, blue, and purple. Hummingbirds visit hundreds of flowers every day.
