    For clarification: 12000 calories here is not the kilocalories we usually measure our daily intake of calories in. A human consumes ~2000 kilocalories a day, which is 2 million calories.
    So the number seems eye popping, but it's really just 12 "calories" in the way we use that word in our day to day lives.

      Thank you for that, I came here to comment that there was no way that tiny critter was burning as much energy as 6 adult humans in a day. This sounds much more reasonable.

    Talamancas. By the way, I have difficulty communicating because I had a stroke in Broca’s area, the part of the brain that controls speech. 2/8/2021 but I lived again. (My wife helped me compose this.)

      I too had the same stroke. Still trying to recover fully 7 years later... But yes I can remember not being able to talk..to this day I wonder if a pad and pencil would have helped me or would those faculties be on hiatus as well/??

    Looks like that Hummingbird is feeding on a type of blueberry or heath and a species of fuchsia.

    Can anyone tell me what kind of manmade device existing now or to be created, with identical proportions to the VHummingbird body vs. wingspan, can be made to move as quickly as those internal flying machines are doing? I would love to see the stress report on that material!
