Small, Big and Tall
What's the world's smallest bird? Well, you'll have to go all the way to Cuba to see it. But it might be worth it.
It's a bee hummingbird. And it is REALLY small. It's only 7 centimetres long. You'd better have good eyes to spot it.
What about the tallest bird? It's a crane.And unless you are a basketball player, you won't be nearly as tall as it.
How tall are some cranes? Cranes can be 2 metres tall. That's really tall for a bird!
Do you think only small birds can fly? Well, think again. The Kori Bustard can fly, but it can also weigh up to 20 kilograms! You'll have to travel all the way to parts of Asia and Africa to see one.
Some things in nature really make you think.
