    • 2 hours long! Hummingb...
    Hummingbirds can hover in mid-air by rapidly flapping their wings 12--80 times per second. They can also fly backwards. They are among the smallest of birds about 3-4 inches long. Their name derives from the characteristic hum made by their rapid wing beats. They can fly at speeds exceeding 34 miles per hour. Hummingbirds drink nectar, a sweet liquid inside certain flowers. and by preying on insects and spiders.
    This 2 hour video was filmed in January, 2012 in Southern California near San Diego. Most of the birds are Anna's Hummingbird which is a year-round resident. You can occassionally see other hummingbirds that have migrated from Costa Rica. There are a total of 3 feeders which consume about 2 gallons per day of (use 4 parts water to 1 part sugar. Ie: 30 oz container. 30/5=6. 6x4=24 oz water, 6 oz granulated sugar; no dye has been added). The amount consumed suggest these feeders support hundreds of hummingbirds. The males have more colorful plummage. The location of the feeder is in the backyard overlooking a golf course. The feeders have been at this location for 3 years! Just before sunset they become numerous.

    When I lived in Texas I had 7 feeders in my back yard. I would go out and stand very still by the feeders and they would land on me. I was in heaven!

      Oh My!! That sounds so cool. I am in Atlanta and consider it astounding that I could even see 2 (!) at the feeder at all! They stayed for maybe 15 minutes total, darting in and out of the bush to sip. They are so amazing. I guess lucky to have any at all but living in a place where they are more populous would be so excellent. Thanks for sharing that.

    Hello from west coast of Canada! I have ONE little female that has come by my balcony for the last year, where i have flowers growing. They remember where they have been, which is amazing to me. She is all brown which tells me she's female. It always makes me happy when i see her. You have sooo many Hummingbirds that visit you that you have enticed me to get a Hummingbird feeder, which will help them maintain their energy with all the flying they do and keep them happy. Thank you, ❤️ the vid.!

    At about 1:03:15, a wasp lands on the feeder just left of center. At this point, their is a ruby-throated humming bird at center frame that is sipping while staying airborne. There is a little copper colored one on the right who is sipping comfortably while perched. He keeps looking up expectantly the feeder like he was waiting for a resuly. Just then, bubbles erupt in the feeder! The bird on the right is looking like he was very pleased to make those bubbles - though i know that can't possibly be, AND the feeder appears to have more in it, though! I don't see any hoses unless they are up and out of frame.
    I thoroughly enjoyed this lovely view into the lives these remarkable little birds. Thank You!

    These birds are SO insect like in how they feed and fly. It's like mother nature had just finished off making the birds and the bees, and then she decided to use the scraps left over from both, and created the hummingbird!. So much so, there is even a hummingbird moth who mimics them!.

    Love seeing them perch like that and tolerate each other. Those look like annas hummers but mine are so territorial and nasty to each other I had to hang 6 smaller feeders to keep the peace haha. My bigger feeders with perches hardly ever saw perching because they are always paranoid looking for other hummers. They like me far more than other hummers and even wait by my hand for me to hang the fresh feeder fills sometimes. They sure are bold, curious little guys and gals. My neighbors all think im some hummingbird addicted weirdo, which I am..But who can blame me? Just look at them. A wonder of nature for sure.

    • @dlxmarks

      The hummers at my feeder probably burn off the energy they just took in by squabbling with each other. It's still early spring so hopefully they'll relax once more flowers are blooming. So far no more than two have shown up at the same time. If it gets more congested, I'll add another feeder.

    They are just amazing! Very fascinating species. I also live in San Diego county and have four feeders up all the time. I live near the coast near Encinitas. For me the winter months is when they become most numerous, and as you mentioned, ESPECIALLY around sunset. I'll look and every port on every feeder will have a hummer on it. I also noticed the more of them there are the more tolerant they become of sharing. where as when there are only a handful present, there may be one or two, (usually Allen's or Rufous) that become territorial, sometimes fiercely so. Awesome video! Always great to see a fellow nature lover.

    We have a saucer-shaped hummingbird feeder which is leak proof. We get a lot of Ruby Throated hummers, here in San Diego. We love to watch them! We also get a lot of Finches at our bird seed feeder, outside our dining window. While we eat, we watch them eat!

    For those using regular water, It's a good idea to use bottled spring water or filtered water but not tap water! Amazing that you get so many hummingbirds,, Incredible!

    I've got 2 feeders, and the hummingbirds are VERY territorial. I never see more than 1 or 2 at the feeder because they always chase each other away. They can get pretty mean!

      I had 4 feeders and they still fought quite a bit, pretty spectacular dogfights in the air.

      I have 3 feeders now, and they still fight--maybe it is their nature. They remind me of teenagers ;->

      I had one buzzing me every time I would sit in my backyard There was a feeder there when I moved in but not used. My mom is totally into hummingbirds and was visiting me. She pointed out what this male anna was doing buzzing the feeder and then coming within inches from my face. So I started the one feeder. What a bully so I put another up. Weeks later I had 11 feeders and could watch 7 feeders from my favorite spot in the yard It gave me something to do with my old broken fishing poles they make great hangers. The next year when they came back OMG is was awesome and then I moved I gave away all my feeders to my neighbors to keep my hummers in the hood. I seriously loved them and just smiled every time I saw them. I had one that if I went thru my back door and out the front he would here the door and buzz my face as I came down my stairs When I changed my feeders out I would be at my table and what a ruckus it was until I re-hung them. This one perched really close to me trying to defend the 7 feeders I could see to no avail. I also could raise my arm up and down and he would go straight up and the dive at me then returning to his perch I swear it was like having a pet do a trick.

    I wish this was in my yard. I have four feeders spread out but I have one humming bird that thinks my entire house is his.. He chases all the other birds away and it makes me so sad because I wanted exactly what your watching in this video.. Any way love the video..

    Great Video! How often do you fill the feeder? I have 10 feeders in my yard and fill them twice a month. I have 5 in the front yard and 5 in the back. one male is mean and chasing them all away, but the females seem to tolerate each other well.

      +Jade Sak What annoying little bird. They remind me of insects. Too busy for me but very beautiful. wow. are they ever sweet. tiny little things. I prefer songbirds and I pray everyday that the old crows would leave the area behind my house which is at the base of a cliff and there is a forest for a few miles up the ridges but there are so many crows and the city won't let me scare them away to attract more smaller birds like the song birds. I imagine if we put out feeders we could draw in hummingbirds as well. they are around. I have seen them up by the Ottawa river.

    • @JohnnyFiveEagles
      @JohnnyFiveEagles 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +Jade Sak I am curios if they can communicate their messages through the sound of their wings. there was one that seemed to have a characteristic hum to the sound of their wings. It was deeper and guttural and the other birds cleared out of the way when it came around. It was the kind of sound that one might associate with an alpha adult.

      There must be mold growing in those feeders you need to change it at least once a week at the least !!

    • @jadesak4896
      @jadesak4896 9 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      yes since i posted it i had no mold, but since then i do change them more often. I noticed two had some gooey gunk from Dead ants inside. i rubbed oil on the feeder hooks and no ants anymore. but yes thanks I do change more often now
