(2) Why aren't hummingbirds afraid of large mammals or birds?

Hummingbirds are such skillful fliers that they have no fear of predators. They can usually elude them with ease.

(3) How do their wings move differently from other birds?

Most birds move their wings up and down when they fly, but a hummingbird moves its wings front-to-back in a figure-eight pattern. This allows them to generate lift on both the forward and backward strokes, as well as endowing them with the ability to hover and fly backwards.
