Hummingbird Hum

The hummingbird does hum in sound,
Due to the flapping of the wings.
Sixty flaps per second around -
Now that's a whole bunch of flappings!
The hummingbird can fly real fast,
And also hover in one spot.
Even if there's a windy blast,
Balance the hummingbird has got.
Studies say the hummingbird hum
Is means to communicate, too.
Humming a yes or no welcome
To whatever is passing through.

Next time you're near a hummingbird,
Listen closely to get the word.
