hummingbird

I believe that hummingbirds would be cool to add into minecraft. they would come to your house if you created a place like a flower garden with the flowers hummingbirds like (such as daylilies and lupines). the more flowers you have, the more likely a hummingbird is to come around. There is no real "use" for them I guess, but what are bats for? hummingbirds can be a better alternative flyer for bats.

    A Sword-billed hummingbird would attack mobs (like protecting player?), by flying very quick straight into an enemy.

    They should spawn in jungle and flower forest biomes and accelerate the growth of crops like bees. They should also be more attracted to red flowers than other colors, like in real life.

    You could also craft sugar water to tame and breed them with.

    Maybe you can tame them with nectar gained from right-clicking flowers with empty glass bottles.

    they could pollenate plants and you can get a really fancy advancement for catching one and all types since they are super fast

    Hummingbirds don't seem super useful, but they could be! Maybe when killed, they could drop a music disc. And you could feed them honey to make them breed.

    Hummingbirds would be so cute! They could have their own spawn egg and biome variations!
