Well that's misleading.
"Comparatively" faster based on its body length. Not true speed. Interesting, nonetheless.

I don't think it was misleading...
Hummingbirds are amazing in action. I think it is fascinating that they are capable of pulling some of the maneuver the do.

Pulling amazing maneuvers while yelling at you!
The ones here are all so terribly bad tempered. No Anna's, though.
