One of the most fascinating creatures to watch flitting around outside is the hummingbird. This tiny bird can literally fly in any direction, even upside down! It beats its wings about 60 times a second to keep it steady in the air. In order to supply the energy for this activity, the hummingbird has a voracious appetite, eating about every ten minutes. While these birds are incredible for their maneuverability, they have another amazing characteristic. Every year, they migrate from the Midwest down to the far south. This journey is incredibly long, especially considering their tiny size. God certainly made a unique creation and also a very great example of engineering with the hummingbird.Links
Lots of pretty pictures
