Read this passage and continue to the question that follows What s that humming sound Could it be hummingbird the only bird capable of backward flight Hummingbirds have many unique flight habits that distinguish them from other birds Most birds flap their wings up and down to fly but the hummingbird moves its wings forward and backward very rapidly in a figure eight pattern This allows the hummingbird to hover in position fly upside down and move about very rapidly And while other birds have to push off with their feet to begin flying and work their ways up to their top speeds the hummingbird can both start flying at maximum speed and stop flying instantaneously After you ve seen a hummingbird in flight it s unlikely that you ll mistake them for another bird What would be a suitable title for this passage OBirds O A Unique Creature the Hummingbird OBirds that Fly 2 29 33
