Hummingbirds are small birds with rapidly beating wings that are mainly found in South and Central America. The following are the living habits and characteristics of hummingbirds:
1. Food habits: Hummingbirds mainly feed on nectar, but also small arthropods such as insects and spiders.
2. Feathers: Hummingbird feathers usually show bright colors, such as red, green, purple, etc. Their feathers have a special structure that can reflect a sparkling effect.
3. Reproduction: Hummingbirds are usually monogamous, and the female and male birds build nests, incubate and feed their young together. The nest is made of plant material and filaments and is usually hidden in a hidden location, such as a branch or plant leaf.
4. Behavior: Hummingbirds are diurnal birds. They flap their wings rapidly, can hover stationary in the air, and fly quickly. They have high maneuverability. Hummingbirds have a high demand for nectar, so they often search for food in flowers and play an important role in flower pollination.
5. Sound: Hummingbirds have a softer sound and sometimes emit a crisp chirp, but they don’t produce as many calls as other birds.
Overall, hummingbirds are one of the most popular ornamental birds, known for their small size, beauty, and maneuverability.
