Largest brain, relative to size, of all birds. The brain is 4.2% of total body weight. Hummingbirds have proportionally the largest hearts of any living animal. 1.75% to 2.5% of body weight. Resting heartbeat is 480 beats per minute and can go as high as 1,260 per second when excited. Resting hummingbirds breathe 250 times a minute.

BILL: Unlike most other birds, hummingbirds bills have a pronounced overlap, with the upper bill curving around and over the sides of the smaller lower bill. When hummingbirds feed, the bill is usually only opened slightly, allowing the bill-shaped tongue to dart out and into the interior of flowers. The bill is rarely opened wide and in any case is limited in how far it can be opened, but is used for variety of tasks, including catching insects in flight, preeming feathers, carrying nesting material, constructing nests, feeding baby hummingbirds and attacking rivals.

Each type of hummingbird has a different appearance. However all hummingbirds are small and colorful. In most species the males are more colorful than females.
