Hummingbirds are spectacularly skilful fliers capable of hovering and changing direction in midflight. As well, their wings beat at an incredible 55-75 beats per second, an almost impossibly fast action.
Hummingbirds are only found in the Americas, and when Spanish explorers first encountered them in the New World, they called them "Joyas Voladoras." I believe this is the perfect name for the hummingbird, for the translation means "flying jewels!"
