Hummingbird is a popular figure in Northwest Coast artwork, especially in jewelry. Generally, Hummingbird has associations with joy, beauty, and good luck. A legend from the Kwakwaka'wakw says that Dzunuk'wa (guardian of the mountains and Wild Woman of the Woods) loved this little bird so much that she let him nest in her hair. In return, the Hummingbird looked like jewelry pinned in her hair. Of all the birds, Hummingbird is the most talented flyer as it can hover in one place, fly sideways, backwards, and forwards. It is agile and adaptable, and some say can teach us how to move forward. Hummingbird is usually depicted with a small round head and a long beak with a sharp point. Flowers are often included in a design with Hummingbird.
