Hummingbirds are the smallest birds on earth and weigh slightly more than 2gramm. The bee hummingbird with 5cm bodylength is the smallest.
As a hummingbird being small is something you are proud of. Females are larger than male and prefer a smaller partner when it comes to sexual selection.
Insects are their main nutrition, they especially like mosquitos, fruitflies and.......spiders!
