     {Humming bird} (Zo["o]l.), any bird of the family
        {Trochilid[ae]}, of which over one hundred genera are
        known, including about four hundred species. They are
        found only in America and are most abundant in the
        tropics. They are mostly of very small size, and are not
        for their very brilliant colors and peculiar habit of
        hovering about flowers while vibrating their wings very
        rapidly with a humming noise. They feed both upon the
        nectar of flowers and upon small insects. The common
        humming bird or ruby-throat of the Eastern United States
        is {Trochilus culubris}. Several other species are found
        in the Western United States. See {Calliope}, and
