My spirit animal is huming bird. Here its mandatory to choose a vertebrate. Birds are vertebrates. The spirit animals that are assigned are meant to give strength, hope, love and comfort.

The function evolved in huming bird to be my spirit animal is flight. Stucture developed for this is wings.

Fineness of function is the special evolution in huming bird. In spite of a small size its long beaks help reach small flowers and get best honey.

Hummingbirds are full of lightness, connection and speed. Its a sign of connectivity and adaptability. Hummingbirds connect flowers and plants. They are capable of amazing feats inspite of their small size. They can adapt to anything and flight still having playfulness and light spirit.

Hummingbirds can lift you up from negativity and show you that everything happens for a reason. Adapt to your surroundings instead of controlling outcomes.

In the evolution tree others are not small and efficient.
