Hummingbirds as good luck charms
Hummingbirds are considered lucky charms in their native Mexico. If you see a hummingbird, it is as if you find the 4-leaf clover in Germany, you are lucky for the day.
According to legend, a hummingbird as a "messenger of the gods" has led the Aztecs from their place of origin Aztlán into the valley of Mexico.
