Hummingbirds adjust migration patterns, nesting times, and diet to cope with changing climates. Their resilience and flexibility help them thrive in diverse environments.
Hummingbirds have high metabolic rates and can enter a state of torpor to conserve energy during harsh weather conditions. Their small size and agility aid in survival.
