About These Birds
Cinnamon Hummingbird
A medium-sized hummingbird (10-11 cm) found in dry to semi-humid habitats along the Pacific coast from Mexico to Costa Rica. Entirely cinnamon-rufous underparts, unusual for a hummingbird. Nectarivore of dry forest, scrub, and gardens.
Ruby-throated Hummingbird

These tiny birds beat their wings about 53 times per second and can fly backwards, sideways, and even briefly upside down. They make an extraordinary non-stop 800 km crossing of the Gulf of Mexico during migration.
