They’re bee hummingbirds, which lives along the West Coast of the U.S., including Alaska in the summer.
The bee hummingbird is a bit smaller, has no rufous color and lives in Cuba.
This delicate bird is one of nature’s smallest and a true evolutionary marvel. It’s even the size of a bee, measuring only 5-6 cm long and weighing less than 2g

Their beautiful iridescent plumage, like that of all hummingbirds, distinguishes them from bees. When they fly, it resembles a flying diamond.
They are truly breathtaking, and if you get the chance to see them, don’t pass it up.

At the estrus season begins in March, males have a green bodies with bright red necks. Females are blue with a black underbelly and a black neck.
Males glow a vibrant pink/red color from head to the throat and all-around singing and aerial performances are all intended to attract their female counterpart.

They lay eggs the size of a coffee bean, about an inch long! However, due to the brilliant plumage, the mother bird will not allow the father to approach the eggs because predators will notice the plumage.
