A Humzee is a hummingbird enemy seen in Donkey Kong Country Returns and its Nintendo 3DS remake, Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. Humzees are small birds with a sharp bill. They have dark green feathers on their back, a cream underside, a red throat, and turquoise wings and a tail. They attack in swarms and move quickly, but they often stop moving and hover in the air for some seconds, a time that the Kongs can take to jump on them to defeat them. They only appear in the level Button Bash.
