The Humming Bird is the space marines' smallest and fastest vehicle, but it is too small too carry weapons. They are mostly used by medics to get to pateints on the battlefield quickly.
Delightful to see this industrious hummingbird flitting in and out of our summer flowers here on Bluebird Estates.
Hummingbirds are birds from the Americas that constitute the family Trochilidae. They are among the smallest of birds, most species measuring 7.5–13 cm (3–5 in) in length. Indeed, the smallest extant bird species is a hummingbird, the 5 cm (2.0 in) bee hummingbird weighing less than 2.5 g (0.09 oz).
They are known as hummingbirds because of the humming sound created by their beating wings which flap at high frequencies audible to humans. They hover in mid-air at rapid wing-flapping rates, typically around 50 times per second, allowing them also to fly at speeds exceeding 15 m/s (54 km/h; 34 mph).[1][2]
Hummingbirds have the highest metabolism of any homeothermic animal.[3] To conserve energy when food is scarce, and nightly when not foraging, they go into torpor, a state similar to hibernation, slowing metabolic rate to 1/15th of its normal rate.[4] Wikipedia

Seeing a Humming bird baby being fed by mom is a real nature wonder.....so glad i can experience this with a nest close by! Baby is just 8 days old
Thought I would switch from the Pow Wow shots back to Zoeys birthday weekend, where At where we held it they had a humming bird feeder and I got a few shots of hummingbirds, nothing amazing but for my first hummingbird shots I was happy
I have not had many hummers in my yards this summer. I think the dry beginning had an influence on this. I did take a few minutes outside the other day and was able to capture this female gathering nectar from the flowers in my yard. I really enjoy seeing them at work.
Thanks for looking,
Susan
This is the first time I was able to capture a photo of a humming bird. I'm so proud of myself! Funny thing, humming birds look a lot like squirrels.
Pretty sure I caught the juvenile. Mama yelled & yelled as he sat on the edge of the feeder, posing for me so nicely!
Benjamin Britten, a newt in a jam jar, Henry David Thoreau, and walking like a camel. This is the stuff I think about.
