Hummingbird Totems

Unlike other birds who gain flight power from the down-stroke, hummingbirds find much power in the upstroke as well. This allows them to flap their wings 50 times a second making it a blur. This is helpful since their feet can only be used for perching. Because their breathing, heart rate, and body temperature are so high, they must feed every 10 minutes, consuming 2/3 their body weight daily.

Hummingbird's feathers are prized in many traditions, for their magical qualities.

Hummingbird comes when we need to spend time soaking in the love of nature so we can learn how to integrate joy into our lives.
