Meet The Bee Hummingbird – The Smallest Bird In The World

We’ve remarked previously that hummingbirds have a delicate beauty that is unlike any other. They are among nature’s tiniest birds and real evolutionary wonders. The bee hummingbird is unlike any other, especially when compared to the little hummingbird. It is, in reality, the world’s tiniest. These small birds are just around 5-6 cm long and weigh less than 2g, which is half a teaspoon of sugar. Their name derives from the fact that they are so little that they are sometimes misidentified as bees. Especially since hummingbirds, like bees, generate a buzzing noise when they fly....

They are endemic to Cuba, where you may see them flying around on flowers, much like a bee! Bee hummingbirds, unlike most other hummingbirds, do not migrate from their native Cuba and are satisfied with their subtropical temperature.
