The world's smallest bird
Smallest Bird on The Planet: Bee Hummingbird
1 Where Do They Live?
The bee hummingbird lives in Cuba. They have disappeared from much of its original range and is now restricted to a few localities including Sierra del Rosario, Zapata Peninsula, and Guantánamo. They can be found in other areas in Cuba, but in lower populations besides the areas highlighted in orange.
2 Flowers and Shapes and Friends
Living mostly near steep, unlinked hills like domes called mogote (muh-goh-tee), the bee hummingbird has a variety of plants to work with. Despite the occasional insect or spider, they feed mostly on nectar from about ten different flower species. Soldierbush, coral vine, yellow adler, and firebush are to name a few favored flowers.
