TINY HUMMING BIRO 18 " fl WORLD'8 ACE AVIATOR I * 1 1 " * 1 -^^fl The humming bird was proclaimed I the world's champion aylator recently' fl by the Smlthsopian Institution. fl Not only can the little creature al- I most stand still In the air. with ii I wing strokes a second, but it can a*. fl tually fly backward. ;i^fl "This has often been questioned JU I impossible but recent photographic fl techniques have shown that the rs fl verse flight Is an actuality," says Dr. fl Wlnsor M. Tyler In a bulletin. Againat j larger birds he employs a form of I "dive bombing."! .fl The spring migration of the ruby- fl throated humming "bird, only speclea'fl ever encountered in the Eastern fl United States keeps pace with theifl opening of its favorlto flowers, Dr. fl Tyler has discovered. Sometimes, he J says, this seems so closely regulated fl that the migrants arrive in a locality j the very day the first bloawina ap- fl i pear. The birds have a d#ffiRfWTJrtffc~~"fl erence for red flowers. The male humming bird disdains dome&tic duties. He usually lets Us fl wife build the nest and keeps away fl from hpr except for brief mating pe- fl riods. The newly hatched bird Is no bigger fl than a pea, but In less than two weeks H he Is almost as big as his parents fl and able to leave the nest. The humming bird has an insatia- fl ble taste for sweets. A single bird fl has been observed to devour two-tafc-fl spoons of sugar daily, comparable tofl close to 50 pounds for a human being, fl Because of its tfny size, humming birds meet perils unknown to othaffl birds. Therb- are instances when? they have been caught In spider wekw and where they have been Impalef^fl on thorns or stuck on thistles. ' Though he is usually silent whenfl alone, tho humming bird does sing, in "fl a high-pitched an<i petulant tone.
