It's a fridge magnet. The branch is ~5.5 cm (2.2 inches) long. Magnet was taken from broken earphones (it had very convenient holes on the edges - perfect to connect to beadwork). Earphone magnets are surprisingly strong... Branch made from size 11 Toho, birds and leaves from size 15. And a random red bead of unknown glossy material (Ceramics? Glass? Enamel? No idea.) for the berry.
Not sure... You can try this: Head/body made like here: [link] (body is smaller though, so only 2 rows of peyote for neck and less increases in the body), beak is a bugle bead+small bead on tip added between eyes, tail is like part 16 in here: [link] .
they are awsome!! aww you beat me in making a hummingbird XP jajajaja I've had them on my to do list for so long I was trying to choose how to make them I'm planing on making a life size bee hummingbird and hopefully set the feet just right so as to have it be able to balance itself on a pecil eraser... but I'll work on it during vacation, not now
