A hovering hummingbird works in both directions. Its wings sweep back and forth and flip over at the end of each stroke, so the upstroke pushes air down too. In 2005 Douglas Warrick and his colleagues measured the air around hovering rufous hummingbirds. The downstroke carried about three quarters of the bird's weight and the upstroke the remaining quarter. Insects split the work roughly evenly. The hummingbird sits in between, and that is part of how it can hold still in front of a flower.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:2em;\"\u003eExplore Related Animal Skull Jewelry\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sciencejewelry1824.shop\/products\/hummingbird-skull\"\u003ehummingbird skull necklace | silver\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sciencejewelry1824.shop\/products\/raven-skull-18k-gold-plated\"\u003eraven skull necklace | gold vermeil\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sciencejewelry1824.shop\/products\/seahorse-skeleton-18k-gold-plated\"\u003eseahorse skeleton necklace | gold vermeil\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sciencejewelry1824.shop\/products\/horse-skull-gold-vermeil\"\u003ehorse skull necklace | gold vermeil\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin-top:2em;\"\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin-top:1.75em;\"\u003eHow big is the pendant, and what chain comes with it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pendant is 40 mm (about 1.6 inches) long, about one and a half times the width of a 2-euro coin, and slim.

The chain is 45 cm (17.7 inches) of gold vermeil with a lobster clasp and a 5 cm (2 inch) extender. 18K gold vermeil means 2.5 microns of 18K gold over solid sterling silver, nickel-free and hypoallergenic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin-top:1.75em;\"\u003eIs there a silver version?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
