The honey-sucking honeybird produced in Cuba is only 5.6 cm long, of which the beak and tail account for about half, the weight is only about 2 grams, and its size is similar to that of a bee, so that the hummingbird is the smallest bird in the world, and its eggs are also the smallest bird eggs in the world, not much larger than a period. Hummingbird feathers are mostly very bright and shiny metallic. Their flying skills are superb, they can fly backwards, vertical rise and fall, and the frequency of wing vibration is very fast, up to 50 to 70 times per second, so they are called "god bird", "comet", "forest goddess" and "corolla".
