The history of hummingbirds and humans Anna’s hummingbird Blue-throated mountaingem Broad-tailed hummingbird Xantus’s hummingbird White-chested emerald Rufous-tailed hummingbird Bee hummingbird Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction Hummingbirds have fascinated humans from early ages. They were an important part of Aztec culture, for example, and it also appears on Trinidad and Tobago’s one cent coin. For a very long time, it was only known in its native area by the native people. As Europeans discovered them, they found them intriguing, not sure how they stayed up in the air. Hummingbirds even became part of fashion in the 19th century or so. Hummingbirds are very pretty little creatures, and this inspired many people to use them in their fashion, art, and economy. But what exactly is a hummingbird? And how do they live? These are questions that can be easily answered with a little reading.

Mary and Elizabeth Kirby were naturalists and gifted illustrators during the Victorian era. The sisters introduced the natural world to women and children through a series of colorful books. At the time, women's contribution to the sciences was not encouraged, and many times not even acknowledged. Women produced "pretty pictures" of flowers, birds and insects, and these were viewed as "hobbies" by the scientific mainstream despite the technical brilliance and amazing accuracy of the work. Hummingbirds is a volume showcasing the "jewels of the avian world." At a time when women were denied access to higher education, Mary and Elizabeth Kirby produced books exploring the wonders of nature and science for an audience hungry for scientific knowledge. Proudly presented as published in 1874
