Hummingbird's Floral Ballet: Garden Nectar Rush

Fun Fact

Hummingbirds are the only birds that can truly fly backward! Their tiny wings beat incredibly fast, sometimes over 80 times per second, which creates the distinctive humming sound they are named for.

Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Shimmering Feathers - Use bright, iridescent colors like emerald green, ruby red, and sapphire blue for the hummingbird's body to capture its unique, shimmering appearance.
2. 2🖍️ Motion Blur Wings - For the blurred wings, use light, wispy strokes of pale grays, blues, or even a hint of transparent white to convey a sense of incredible speed and movement.
3. 3✨ Vibrant Blooms - Give the petunias and salvias rich, varied colors. Think deep purples, fuchsia pinks, and bright reds, adding lighter highlights and darker shadows for dimension.
4. 4🌈 Garden Depth - Use varying shades of green for the leaves and foliage, adding shadows beneath the flowers and behind the hummingbird to create a lush, realistic sense of depth in the garden environment.
