The bumble bee, supposedly shouldn't be able to fly. The humming bird is the only bird that flies backwards, and the butterfly is always set free...but, that can be lonely if you're always free. Which and why?

Given that I have a little bit of testosterone in my blood...
May I please have a 4th choice...?!?

I pick the butterfly because I often feel like I am tied down by all the demands of society and I am not free to be myself or do the things i want to do.
Yes, the butterfly may be lonely, but so are many people in this jungle.

i wouldn't be a bumble bee because i want the freedom of soaring up to explore all possibilities ahead of me and look at it at different perspectives.
i wouldn't be a humming bird either for in the game of life, among its unwritten rule is to never move back, just move forth.
i would rather be the butterfly, because every butterfly before they because as beautiful and as free as they are to help bring fruits from a flower, they went through a long process of waiting and gathering experiences as a caterpillar, before they went through the confining pressure of their cocoon as their wings are developed to be strong enough to hold them to fly free...

a humming bird.
not only am a work of wonder, i hum more lovely than a bee buZz & a butterfly glide.
most importantly, i can backout & retreat anytime i want to.
as a human being we all know out limits,
so we better know when to step back when necessary.
im more agile than the two, i get the most nectar too
:)))))))))

Butterflies only live one season and often run into cars and die. Bumblebees die after they sting so probably a shorter life yet. I think I'd enjoy being a hummingbird. People always put out little red flower looking sugarwater containers and enjoy watching you. You can be quite the exhibitionist and fly away before their bratty son shoots you with his high powered watergun (you can't at all tell I have boys, can you?)

I saw a hummingbird inside my home. She pecked her beak against the tulip in my window. It was glass and red, and the red rested upon her breast as it seduced her.
I creeped to her and whispered low, and she allowed me to hold her and take her to the open door, where I uncupped my hands and watched her fly.
I always thought we had a meeting; we knew each other in some mystical way, the way she trusted me, the way I trusted me to be gentle and to let her go.
I am already part humming bird. We visit, she and I, when the calla lilies are in bloom and the camellias await her throbbing touch.

Humming Bird, definitely. There the biggest so they have the least possible chance to be in danger, out of the three.

The humming bird has qualities of the other two, it hums and it flutters and is beautiful. As far as I know, it has no predators or successful predators. They soar and glint as if made of metal, the color of copper and fly straight up like a jet. Watching them my imagination is made fantastic.

A Humming Bird. To watch them is like wathing fairies. They are so delicate and so beautiful and they have to move their wings sooooooooo fast just to drink. I always think of them as fairies
