Did you know that the metalbird hummingbird:
Hummingbirds belong to the common swifts. This family has more than 300 species. Most species occur in South America. The hummingbird can keep silent in the air! This is due to the very fast wing beat, as many as 15 to 80 strokes per second. Because of this fast wing beat the hummingbird can fly backwards as the only bird. They can even fly straight up and straight down. The 'helicopter' among the birds. This way of flying requires a lot of energy. They get the birds inside through the sugars that are in the nectar of flowers.
What material is the metalbird hummingbird made of?
This hummingbird is made of corten steel which gets a nice rusty layer after placement. Rain, wind, hail or snow, it does not matter because the Hummingbird only gets better! The bird's silhouette Hummingbird is 14 cm high and it protrudes 20 cm.
