Are there hummingbirds in China? Is this a hummingbird?

1. There are no wild hummingbirds in China, and hummingbirds are basically only distributed in the Western Hemisphere.

2. Hummingbirds mainly inhabit tropical and subtropical areas, and their distribution is limited to America. There were no hummingbirds in the old world, but there were some birds like hummingbirds, such as sunbirds and flowers and birds. Most hummingbird species are concentrated between north latitude 10 and south latitude 25. The geographical distribution of different kinds of hummingbirds varies greatly. For example, the dominant species is the brown-purple-eared hummingbird, which is distributed from Guatemala to subtropical and tropical Bolivia. Some species, such as the exotic ring worm, are only distributed in a valley in temperate Peru.

Hummingbirds belong to the hummingbird family, which are all distributed in the tropical forests of America. Many friends in China say they have seen hummingbirds. In fact, in most cases, they have seen long-billed moths (hummingbird moths), and sometimes they regard sunbirds, including sunbirds, nectar birds and spider-catching birds, as hummingbirds. They all have long mouths and small bodies, which are very similar to hummingbirds, but you should know that hummingbirds are mostly in shape.

4. Nature collected close-up photos of 20 hummingbirds, and finally attached some birds of Hummingbird Moth and Sunbird Family for your appreciation and identification. It is not easy for the author to take these photos, because hummingbirds fly very fast, the amplitude of their wings can reach 52 times per second, and they are good at hovering and flying backwards, so it is difficult to find their flight rules, so they must have great patience and good luck if they want to take clear images.
