The Domination of the Future

The future, an unknown yet crucial force, drives evolution, shaping entities like the Bee Hummingbird. With a current population of 22,000-66,000, their survival is threatened. In Cuba's subtropical habitat, these birds thrive, relying on the Solandria Grand Flora for sustenance. However, climate change impacts Cuba's environment, stressing water supply, increasing erosion, and reducing forest coverage. As temperatures rise, sea levels elevate, and vegetation transforms, Bee Hummingbirds may face challenges. Evolution may unfold, with smaller bodies, increased wingspans for better flight in denser air, and sturdier beaks for insect consumption. While iridescent plumage persists for mating, adaptive changes may occur to cope with the changing climate. Inevitably, the Bee Hummingbird's future hinges on its ability to adapt to a shifting environment fraught with climatic challenges.
