Most hummingbirds exhibit sexual dimporphism meaning that the male looks different than the female. Most male hummingbirds are much more brightly colored than their mates. Females tend to be very drabbly colored so that they blend into their surroundings better. Blending in is particularly helpful when the female is sitting on a nest. If she were brightly colored like a male, she would draw attention to herself and risk putting herself and her chicks in danger.

The males only have blue beaks during the summer. Since summer and spring is their breeding time, I guess it's to attract mates or to let the females know that they are males, but they have many other ways to let the females know they are males.
In species such as mammals and birds the male species is typically larger than females. However, other than those the opposite occurs. In the majority of reptiles the females are larger than the males except lizards and crocodiles and most insects the female is larger than the males.
Male and female birds have a vent that is called a cloaca. This vent is shared by the digestive and reproductive systems. When both females and males are ready to breed, they rub their cloacas together.
I am a male but I'll have to be honest. The answer to this question is that this is the difference of hormones which makes men/males so angry and aggressive. And also i want to say that the females have more maturity than males because the puberty in women/females starts earlier than males, and as you know puberty is a step to maturity and responsibilities.

Males that are much larger than females.
In many birds the males have more beautiful colors than females because the females don't need them. The males use them to scare off other males and to attract females. The females don't need them for anything.

males that are much larger than females
Ricky would have counted 36 adult female birds. . out of 88, 16 were babies and the rest were adults. so 88-16=the number of adult birds = 72 if there was the same number of females as there were males, 72 divided by 2 is 36 so there are 36 females, 36 males and 16 babies (all add up to 88) so the answer is 36
Moas were peaceful giant birds. Females grew larger than males and recent discoveries suggest the males performed loud mating calls to attract females. The females would lay eggs that the male would fertilize.
