Meet Cuban Tody - One Of The Most Beautiful Birds In The World

These very cute bird species are one of the smallest of hummingbirds. As the name suggests, these birds are native to Cuba. They live on the islands of Cuba, Puerto Rico, Jamaica and Hispaniola. Let's get to know these birds in more detail.

During a test done in Cuba in the year 2000, out of forty-nine different bird species, the Cuban tody was the most often found present and highest in population all across Cuba (Elena). Different studies showed that the Cuban tody is a circumference species, which means that it is a species that likes to group with other species of birds (Stephen). Research found that the Jamaican tody' evolved from the Cuban tody (Lowell and Douglas). Paleontologists have also found skeletons of the Cuban todies in Southern Germany suggesting that they were, at one point, not only surviving and living there,ut also possibly originating from there (Gerald and Norbert).
