Emerald Chin Hummingbird Brooch Pin

The emerald-chinned hummingbird, a jewel of Central America, sports vibrant green and blue plumage. At a mere 3.5-4 inches and 2-3 grams, they fiercely compete for nectar, using their slender bill and extendable tongue. To attract a mate, males can dedicate up to 6 hours to mesmerizing aerial displays, beating their wings up to 200 times per second. With a rapid wingbeat and agile flight, these hummingbirds navigate flowers and engage in aerial battles over their territory. Their iridescent colors result from unique feather pigments, making them not just small wonders but avian marvels.
