Tiny. Territorial. Totally mind-blowing. Weighing less than a nickel and flapping up to 200 times a second, the Ruby-Throated Hummingbird is one of nature’s most impressive overach ievers. Our steel silhouette captures this high-speed marvel in a rare moment of stillness—wings out, mid-hover, always alert. Don’t let the size fool you: hummingbirds are ferocious defenders of their turf. They'll chase off crows, jays, and even hawks if you get too close to their patch. Their hearts beat up to 1,200 times a minute. They visit hundreds of flowers a day. And to keep up that energy, they consume more than half their body weight in sugar—daily. Perch this one in your garden as a tribute to the most turbocharged creature you'll ever meet—and a reminder that small things can be mighty. ✓ Packs a punch...
