How many times can a hummingbird flap its wings per second?
80
Background
A hummingbird flaps its wings up to 80 times per second. This makes its flight sound like a soft hum. It can even fly backwards and hover right in place. No other bird in the world can do that. Its tiny heart beats over 1,000 times per minute.
