Check Out Bird That Can Fly Backwards by Darey888(op):
Hummingbirds are incredible flyers, with the ruby-throated hummingbird beating its wings 80 times every second, an ability that inspired this blog's name.

These tiny birds can fly forwards, hover, and are the only known birds to fly backwards as well.

I wonder why guys sit in their mushroom huts and start disproving scientifically proven facts. Infrared rays of 3 μm oscillate over 100 trillion times in a single second. So, what's special about a bird flapping it's wing 80 times a second?

grin I tell u.

Re: Check Out Bird That Can Fly Backwards by Gudiza(m):
FUN facts;

A bee flaps its wings about 300 times per second. A dragonfly flaps its wings at only about 30 beats per second but have two sets of wings so they don't have to beat them as much to fly.

Oyinbo too much. dem go soon design one aircraft with this one.

You cant see their wings when they fly
Browse pictures of them and see for yourself

The speed of the wings makes it difficult for the camera to capture it
Re: Check Out Bird That Can Fly Backwards by PSTEMMA1960(m): 5:25pm On Mar 12, 2019
grin so if u can't see them how do u then do the counting? My brother 80 times in a second is not possible..

It is an estimated figure
Use of speed cameras when it is analysed frame by frame

Difficult for the average camera. There are cameras that capture videos at over 2000 frames per second. On YouTube, I've onced watch a clip of the speed at which a glass cracks when hit with an object. This video was filmed at over 10000 frames per second. If you even check YouTube, you'll see videos of this hummingbird filmed at thousands of frames per second. I marvel at the shocking level of ignorance displayed by some Nigerians here who think they know it all. How will the country ever develop scientifically when these are the kinds of youths we have? Those who never seek proofs for simple stuffs like this but would rather display their ignorance on public platforms.

I'm only backing up what you earlier posted. You said it's difficult for the camera to capture its wing movements, but it has been captured by several cameras already. The other part isn't meant for you, but for those disproving the news without any meaningful fact to present
