This study identifies and quantifies intermittent hovering in hummingbirds, linking it to body mass, wing length, and wing coloration across species.

This study examines how dominance relationships in a hummingbird assemblage change over time, finding significant temporal variation in dominance, species composition, and visit frequency.

This study examines the impact of radio-tag backpacks on captive hummingbird behavior, finding no significant effect on core behaviors but noting covariates like treatment order and time of day influence activity patterns.

This paper develops a zero-shot learning computer vision method to estimate hummingbird wingbeat frequency from high-speed videos, achieving results comparable to human observers with minimal supervision.

The paper introduces PicoCam, a 3D imaging system for live animals and preserved specimens, and demonstrates its use in measuring hummingbird bills with high precision.
