Female Anna's are metallic green above and grayish below with bits of reddish spotting on the throat.Pale line over the eye.

Anna's hummingbird consume more insects than any other North American hummingbird.

Their hearts beat at 1260 beats per minute.

Hummingbirds drink the nectar found in feeders by moving their tongue in and out about 13 times per second.They can consume up to double their body weight.

Anna's hummingbirds normally have a body temperature of around 107 degrees F that's a scorching temperature for a human. When outside temperature fall, Ann'a and many other species of hummingbird enter torpor. Their breathing and heart rate slow, and their body temperature can fall as low as 48 degrees F. When temperature warms, the hummingbird can become active again in a few minutes.

Anna's hummingbird is the only one that does not always migrate south to warmer climes in the winter.This hardy little bird can be a permanent resident staying through the winter in many areas where no other hummingbirds are present.
