NAME:
Hummingbirds or hummingbirds are among the smallest birds in the world and are the only ones capable of staying in the same place, like a helicopter, or of flying backwards. To do this, however, their little wings need to move very quickly, which takes a lot of energy. Thus, they need to eat a lot, and some species can eat up to eight times their own weight in a single day. Wow!
The canela-tail-balancing is a small hummingbird that weighs just nine grams and only exists in Brazil. He has a greenish back and cinnamon lower body, with a darker tone in his throat. The tail feathers, in turn, are bronze in color and have white tips. The bird also has a thin white stripe above and below its eyes.
Like other hummingbirds, the cinnamon-tail rocker usually feeds on small insects, spiders and nectar (a sweet liquid produced by flowers). To suck it, these birds have a double-tipped tongue that forms two small straws.
It is common for hummingbirds to have the pollen grains from the flowers stuck to the feathers and beak after sucking the nectar. So they end up taking them from one flower to another as they go their way. As flowers need pollen to produce seeds, hummingbirds unintentionally help them to grow. make this transport and end up benefiting too: after all, the nectar of flowers is one of their foods.
Hummingbirds see very well, and many flowers have bright colors, such as red or orange, to attract your attention. Although very small, these birds are very brave and know how to defend their resources, such as the flowers they use to feed. Thus, some males may even drive females out of their own species if they get close to the food. In the struggle for survival there seems to be no room for kindness: males and females usually only get together at the time of reproduction.
The cinnamon-tail rocker lays its eggs from September to February and hatches them for 15 days. The female is the one who builds the nest and also takes care of the chicks for almost a month after birth so that they can survive on their own.
The small scale-tail-cinnamon is threatened with extinction due to the destruction of the environment where it lives, in other words, its habitat. The forests that serve as home to this bird are being rapidly destroyed for the creation of animals, the cultivation of food, the installation of industries and the growth of cities. Therefore, we need to preserve them so that this beautiful hummingbird does not disappear forever.
