Organizing and summarizing search results for youHummingbirds have chest and wing muscles that make up about 10% of their bodies. Their shoulder can have a 180-degree motion, and the wings move almost in a perfect 8-figure motion. Hummingbirds have unusual pectoral and supracoracoideus muscles which contain only red fiber, enabling them to keep a rich supply of blood and oxygen flowing into their muscles as they fly, so they don’t tire even with their rapid wing rate. The most important muscles in Ruby-throated Hummingbirds are those associated with flying, including the pectoralis majors, the upper wing bones, and the clavicles.3 Sources
