Hummingbirds are a species of bird well known for their unique ability to hover and fly backwards. Hundreds of species can be found throughout North and South America, each with its own beauty and colorful feathers. This elegant creature can flap its wings as fast as 52 beats per second, making it challenging to capture its alluring grace and swift motion clearly. Nevertheless, these photographers have made an amazing job of it.
