How Hummingbirds fly through small spaces - Catherine - 11-10-2023
Hummingbirds seem to be able to fly anywhere. When filmed in slow motion we can see that they fly sideways through narrow openings.
They seem to be able to fly through small holes too.

They are like giant bumble bees, the way they fly. It is incredible how they can do it.
If we couldn't slow the images down we wouldn't be able to see it. I have never seen a hummingbird on a perch before.
Definitely hummingbirds do more than we think they do.
