['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Date: 2024-09-02  

There are 366 species of hummingbirds. They are native to the Americas, from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego. These are from Trinidad and Tobago.

This bee hummingbird is from Cuba. His species is the smallest, at only about 2 grams and 6 centimeters long.

their eggs are about the size of a pea.

they can be curious, and sometimes friendly.

they don’t always share nicely at the feeder.

In Eurasia, they have sunbirds, and in Australia they have honey eaters. These are very distant relatives to the hummingbird family.

A gentle reminder of how we do things: 🐱🐶🐦

Do not troll the diary. If you hate pootie diaries, leave now. No harm, no foul.

Please do share pics of your fur kids! If you have health/behavior issues with your pets, feel free to bring it to the community.

Pooties are cats; Woozles are dogs. Birds... are birds! Peeps are people.

Whatever happens in the outer blog STAYS in the outer blog. If you’re having “issues” with another Kossack, keep it “out there.” This is a place to relax and play; please treat it accordingly.
