"Hummingbirds are known for their elaborate courtship display, and for being careful caregivers after mating. The male performs for the female, who chooses her mate, and then they build a nest together. They can raise two broods per season, and the babies can fly just 21 days after birth. In Northwest coast Native ancient stories, the Hummingbird is a symbol of healing."
