Hummingbirds are difficult to photograph being that they are small, very quick, and can beat their wings around 53 times a second and fly in an acrobatic style matched by few other birds. Humming birds hover often, and also fly upside down and backwards. Their legs are extremely short, so they cannot walk or even hop with any efficiency.
