Sixteen species breed in the U.S.:

• Allen's Hummingbird
  
• Anna's Hummingbird
  
• Black-chinned Hummingbird
  
• Broad-tailed Hummingbird
  
• Calliope Hummingbird
  
• Costa's Hummingbird
• Rufous Hummingbird
• Berylline Hummingbird
• Blue-throated Hummingbird
• Broad-billed Hummingbird
• Buff-bellied Hummingbird
• Lucifer Hummingbird
• Magnificent Hummingbird
• Ruby-throated hummingbird
• Violet-crowned hummingbird
• White-eared hummingbird

Of these, most are western and southwestern species. Only the Ruby-throated nests east of the Mississippi River, but others are found as uncommon to rare migrants and winter residents in the eastern states.

Depending on the species, hummingbirds can flap their wings anywhere from 40-80 times in one second, with the fastest being 90. During courtship, wing speed will increase further--even up to 200 times per second.

A Ruby-throated Hummingbird, hovering in open space, has a wingbeat rate of about 50-52 times per second. The smaller the hummingbird, the faster the speed, ranging from about 10-80 beats per second.

A hummingbird flaps it wings 70 times per second. That's 4,200 times a minute.

a Hummingbird tattoo= You take great pleasure in spreading joy and love and beauty to all around you, and have the gift of taking that inner joy into new and different surroundings.

I have a Hummingbird tattoo because of a beautiful piece of artwork I once saw with this explanation:

"Legends say that hummingbirds float free of time, carrying our hops for love, joy and celebration. Like a hummingbird, we aspire to hover and savor each moment as it passes, embrace all that life has to offer and to celebrate the joy of everyday. The hummingbird's delicate grace reminds us that life is rich, beauty is everywhere, every personal connection has meaning and that laughter is life's sweetest creation."

Most experts recommend 1 part sugar to 4 parts water. Ratios from 1:3 to 1:5 are all similar to the sugar concentrations found in the nectar of hummingbird-pollinated flowers, but solutions stronger than 1:3 may not provide enough water, especially in hot, dry wearther, and those weaker than 1:5 may not attract the birds.

• Use only white granulated sugar, not honey, powdered sugar or artificial sweeteners.
• Food coloring is unnecessary and possibly harmful.
• Sugar water spoils quickly, so be sure to change the feeder solution every 2 to 4 days even if there is some left.
• Cleaning the feeder thoroughly at least once a week will help prevent spoilage and diseases transmission.
• Boiling the solution isn't necessary but may help delay spoilage.
• Always refrigerate any leftover solution.
