Hummingbirds are amazing! First, they are so tiny and cute! Second, they are so incredibly fast that its mind boggling! How they developed that speed is beyond me! I saw a Hummingbird twice up close! The first time I heard this buzzing noise and got scared thinking it was a huge bumblebee or flying insect! I didn’t know what it was at first. Then it dawned on me it was a Hummingbird! And he was going from flower to flower on this bush that was close to where I parked! I wish I could have recorded it but I didn’t have my cellphone within reach so I sat in my car with the window open just watching it for about 5 minutes! And I thought, what an amazing Bird! How did evolution or Mother Nature create such a creature that moves that fast? I was flabbergasted watching this tiny bird fly and dart around! Just an Amazing experience!
New Atlantis The hummingbird is soo amazing God's beautiful creature for us humans to enjoy soo pretty and awesome and interesting. Thanks for the video God bless.
We lived in Tucson AZ for 15 years, and there are always several species around to enjoy. At the ASDM I learned how to make clear - no dye - nectar. Fill you feeder, and sit back and watch the drama. Beautiful birds, and very territorial, and aggressive. I was "warned" away from a feeder I was hanging 😺 By a tiny bird no bigger than my thumb! Priceless.
I really love birds, I hope our generations can still see the beauty of natural birds like we do now, hoping that human consciousness to look after them is higher
Que hermoso video! Los colibríes hermosos!! Que lugar más bonito, felicidades para doña María y su esposo..... ojalá que sus decendientes cuiden ése santuario dé la naturaleza!
Humming bird don't fly away, fly away. The sweetness of your necture has drawn me like a fly. I just love you, love you, love you. Don't even know the reason why.
Thanks SO much for quoting the lines to that beautiful Seals & Croft’s song I’d forgotten about for way too long...looked it up and played it right after I finished watching this video - was always one of my favorites from so long ago. Yet another reason to miss the 70’s.....☺️🎶
I love hummingbirds. I put one feeder out every Spring and they come back every year. They seen to bring more every time they come back. I enjoy looking at them. They sit on my plants or the rail next to me they have gotten so tame that in the mornings they be perched on the rails waiting for a fill up. Its so cute. They're gone now. I'll be waiting for them next year.
Still amazed that these are real birds after all these years. Everything about them feels like it's made up, but there was one that loved my mom's hibiscus when we would put it in the backyard for the summer. You see them move and equate their flight with things like dragonflies, but they have more in common with Eagles than insects. That's why nature will always remain fascinating.
We used to live on 20 acres and we had four different types of Woodpeckers,at least a dozen Hummingbirds,and one huge Barn Owl that scared the hell out of us. One night driving down our road into our property the Owl flew right at our car and his or her wing span looked as wide as our car. We just about jumped out of the car.Scary until we realized what it was. Hummingbirds are a wonder to watch as they move right,left,up,down and sometimes straight at you and stop an inch or less from your face. Just beautiful.
just sit REALLY still by the feeder and put your finger right under the little flower on the feeder, Keep it there and eventually they will perch on it, just be still and quiet. I have had hummingbirds sit on my hand. I just takes patience. I love them, little flying jewels
Plant some hummingbirds plants that they like in your garden, for Bees and Butterflies, and they all will come visiting you. Avoid any Pestizides and Herbizids though.
Biblically speaking, the Unicorn, that is mentioned in the King James Version, was probably a Single-horned Rhino which was actually mentioned in the 1828 Webster Dictionary... webstersdictionary1828.com/Dictionary/unicorn Notice, that in the 1828 Dictionary, there is no mentioning of a Unicorn being a single-horned horse. So, a Unicorn being a single-horned horse is a recent phenomena. People today, usually atheists, unjustly attack the Bible as a book of fairy-tales because of Unicorns being mentioned.
I am watching a ruby throated hummer...He showed up with Phoenix hitting 96 degrees...sad ....He probably will not make it tonight...We are 39 degrees going down to 28...with a wind chill decreasing...that lower...He is one of our returning birds...He buzzed our front window until he got our attention...frantically....Either he migrated too early or was lifted “off course” by the warm up drafts...... to our mountainous “rim”.... above the salt river....It will be a miracle if this solitary bird “makes it”.....Wild cats have been known to sit...on the heater stacks on the roofs along the “rim”...A photographer in the Payson Roundup captured one such cat sleeping on top of a covered vent pipe on such a rooftop and it made the front page some ten years ago!.....
This reminds me so much of my cousin Dorothy Lancester's home in San Jose Costa Rica, when I visited in 1977; her house was an old fashioned single storey, wooden , if I recall right, Victorian house, which when built had probably been been well out of town. Then she was surrounded by houses; but her garden was a treat; she was an orchid grower, of repute; and the garden lived for flowers and, so for hummingbirds
Greetings from Central coast California!! We recently began to regularly provide sugar water for the local Hummingbirds. They come to our home everyday. We use four cups of clean water and mix in one cup of granulated sugar. These creatures eat eat and eat. My daughters love to watch them as they buzz around and chase eat other away. as they are territorial to the 10th power. One time my oldest daughter said she saw 3 of them in a row....of course chasing each other away. My only regret is that we didnt start feeding them sooner. They bring extra joy in my family. Amazing creatures!!!
Humming birds are very protective of their feeder. I had three big, burly guys cutting down a huge pine tree in the back and those tiny birds had them ducking and running from an air assault that top gun would brag about.
My backyard patio garden is an oasis in the Arizona dessert. I always have clean fresh water for them ,homemade bird feeders and three hummingbird feeders. I love looking at them. The hummingbirds are the only brave ones, they are brave enough to come close to me.😍☺😊
The Rufus Hummingbird is one of the smaller of the species, but scrappier than most. At my hummingbird feeder, “huge” red-throated hummingbirds think they rule. A tiny Rufus will fly up, fan his tail, and chase the bigger hummingbirds away. They run. It’s fun to watch the different hummingbirds interact. With Rufus, the small and tough guy wins every time. I love my hummingbirds.
Amazing to see these miniture powerhouses in flight. But why oh why the unnecessary and intrusive music throughout the video!? I'd much rather listen to the sound of those little wings and the other ambient sounds of nature.
There is a reason all nature videos have separate sound tracks. The cameras can zoom miles into what they are looking at but there is no sound zoom technology. Most sounds you ever hear on wildlife shows are separately recorded sounds that make sense to what you are seeing since rarely they are able to film wildlife close enough to record it at a loud enough quality for viewing pleasure. I wished I could hear the birds too.
Tone, vibration, frequency really makes a difference in how the birds respond, like snow white you gotta feel love a couple of hummingbirds danced mid air in front of me it was a sweet sight one that you want to keep going, I savored the moment

Jack Ellul, love your bent of mind. I think you would appreciate the fil and books I mentioned in a post above. The documentary The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill. The books The Human Nature of Birds, and Kinship of All Life. Blessings to you always, we are kindred spirits.
I use clear sugar water. I put a fishing bobber to see level. Once I just hung up the feeder. I stepped back about a foot. In came a bird. it feed on the far side first. As it feed. It kept leaning over and looking at me. it did this about 6 times. The it flew to me. it stopped about 2 inches from my nose. it hoovered and but 15 seconds. Then it flew around to my left ear. Then it returned to my nose. It then flew around to my right ear. Again returned to my nose. it did exactly the same thing again. Then it returned to the feeder. Again it landed on the far side from me. Then it looked around on the left side at me. it feed. Then it looked around on the right side at me. Then it flew away. My smile was a mile wide.
Marry Ellen Have had the same thing happen! It was a female Ruby Throated. She soon would sit next to my hand and feed....then rest, checking me out the whole time. Once had a male wash himself in the water of a hose I was holding...he flew to the base of the water flow....at the ground....placed his belly in the spray...and then flew along the spray up to my hand which held the nozzle. He did this three times, while I stood watching , still as a statue, in amazement. His belly was clean and shiny! He then flew straight upward, doing the 360 degree Hummerscan around me....and flew away. He left that day for the South. I figured he said “thanks” as he headed off until next year. Love these birds....feisty and friendly and bring sunshine into the lives of those who commune with them.
I love birds. I have two parrots. My friend Joe has a hummer feeder hanging from a pole about two feet from from a window by his back porch, Here in CT we have two types of hummys..the Rufus and Ruby Throated. I was watching thru the back window and all of a sudden a male Ruby came to the feeder. He was STUNNING ( males in almost all birds are brighter in color than females, except for the Eclectus Parrot) hummers are so awesome!
It is a shame that even when the documentary was highlighting the sound that Hummingbird wings produce, producers/editors could not help their urge to overlay the footage with man-made music, interfering and drowning out the sound of the wingbeats that Hummingbirds make. It talked about how different Hummingbird species produce different distinct hum that some Brazilians are able to differentiate, yet made no attempt to record and do a side by side acoustic comparison or analysis. What is up with the addiction to man-made music to drown out the sounds of Nature even in Nature documentaries?! Can we please get away from man-made sounds every now and then and relax and contemplate in the natural sounds!?
@Wasim islam ---What is up with the addiction to man-made music to drown out the sounds of Nature even in Nature documentaries?--- Right you are! I doubt that we can do something about a forceful trend that is bothering me increasingly since some time. Background music (? no, noise!) seems to be a 'must' in most videos, not only of precious Nature documentaries. It'a shame to have laid aside interesting footage because unnecessary fuzz prevented me from understanding the message.
Wasim Islam its true what you say. I think since TH-cam though more videos without music have been made and these are so nice. No human voice either. Just observation. I hope future films take this style on board
I love Huumminbirds. They truly are the UNICORNS of the bird world. Thanks God for creating such an incredible species of bird.
It is great to read some one thanking God for such wonderful creatures.

It is so special when a hummingbird sits on your thumb.
Sounds like a cat, looks like a bird, flies like a harrier jet.
