Behold the Hummingbird!

Suzanne Slade

This book explores hummingbirds and several of their remarkable abilities. It describes species that can hover, move backward, and fly upside down, and notes that they may consume half their body weight in a day. The account also covers hummingbirds’ long migrations, including journeys of up to 5,000 miles annually, and their role as pollinators. Illustrations, photographs, sources, and suggestions for further reading accompany the information about these birds of the Americas.
