Features: The hummingbird is one of the smallest warm-blooded animals in the world. It is named for the buzzing sound it makes while flying. The smallest hummingbirds are even smaller than horseflies, weighing only 2 grams and being no thicker than a bumblebee. Among all birds, hummingbirds have the most elegant posture and the most vibrant colors, with feathers that have the brilliance of gemstones. Compared to their body size, the brains of hummingbirds are even larger than those of humans, and they can remember every flower they visit in a day. They are light, swift, agile, and graceful, making them a masterpiece of nature. The Hummingbird Collection primarily compiles the miscellaneous writings of contemporary Chinese and young scholars who think independently. It focuses on authors who think autonomously, stand out from the crowd, and articulate universal human values; it seeks texts that strongly engage with reality and can voice their independent opinions in a noisy and era; it expects the best-quality miscellaneous writings that are insightful, well-argued, and clearly expressed.
