Today is the sunniest day in weeks; perhaps that is why exuberance overrides bathing!

If nectar is left too long or the feeder is dirty a fungus starts to grow. It infects feeding birds and grows on their tongues and throats and slowly ends up suffocating them. You can see his distress - he's trying to scratch his throat and can't withdraw his tongue. The next day was more heart-breaking; his little chest heaving as he tried to breathe. There was no next day. If you are going to...

    LOT MORE BICKERING THAN BATHING!

  • @plips71755

    Thanks for the share. They seem to have a preference for that smaller feeder in the back... do you mind telling us which that is (the name, where you got it from). I see a number of these bathing videos.. I might suggest placing a half of a brick (chipped long wise) or in half (depends on the bath, fountain etc) so they can land on it and not keep sliding off slipper surfaces. You want it to be under the water but they get a good grip. My birdbath is so pretty but it’s deep for hummers and on the edge they keep sliding backwards due to the bubbler. With the brick being about an inch thick they can get a grip and still splash about. A rough rock will do too. And a rock you can take course sandpaper to if more grip is needed. I find mine like the fine spray the best that they can fly through and back and forth.

    Beautiful video; and very well-positioned camera, BTW. Great little sanctuary you've got set up for them. While I'm not an expert, these look like ruby-throated (emerald green) and rufous (copper) hummingbirds. Such compelling little creatures!

    To make it easier for the birds to not slip on the edge of the fountain, take sandpaper and rough up the edges.

    I lov your set up with the cam. How great to vid birdies relaxing, bathing and getting a drink! A perfect spa for them. The bird will most likely go somewhere and preen, after a nice dip and oil their feathers. My bird always takes a nap after a good bath. Wonder if they do too?

  • @creyes777
    @creyes777 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    So what was actually happening? Looked like the hummingbird was having mouth/tongue issues but not sure why..?

    • @daureenesmith579
      @daureenesmith579 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah. I'm with the other comment; what exactly was happening? Why was the hummingbird so itchy? I didn't see any ants on the feeder. I don't think the hummingbird even got a chance to drink. So I'm really puzzled by this video. I love hummingbirds and feed them frequently. Therefore, I watch all the videos on them to make sure I don't do anything that would harm them.

    • @trisa9625
      @trisa9625 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      the humming bird probably drank from that red fluid they sell in convibient stores

    • @trisa9625
      @trisa9625 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The red dye kills them. also wen people dnt clean the feeders correctly their tongue swells from infection. it a very horrible death

    I love and admire hummingbirds. They are so eager to live life and always persevere. During a freeze coldspell in Arizona, I took the feeders in at night and brought them out early in the morning. I counted one hummer taking over 30 bites at one time.

    I've found using a smaller feeder like the Aspects Mini Hummzinger 153 encourages more frequent cleaning. It's only 8 ounces capacity, as opposed to the twelve and up of others. Just curious: What hardware are you using to record the videos? The quality is very good.

    Thank you for sharing your wonderful video. I would guess you are in So Cal to have such pleasant weather in February. The copper colored hummers are striking!
