Correct Choice : (C) Hummingbird

Solutions : Hummingbird is the smallest bird and the only bird that can fly backwards. When we observe the flight patterns of these birds, we can notice that they fly forwards, sideways, and backwards while also being capable of changing its in-flight direction.

The backwards flight is usually observed when these birds retreat from one flower in order to move to another.
This is due to a unique ball and socket joint at the shoulder of the bird, that allows it to rotate its wings 180 degrees in all directions.The tips of the wings trace a figure eight pattern as the backward and forward wing strokes lift it.
