Thanks so much for this video! I had found a hummingbird that was at the brink of death and searched TH-cam for feeding ideas. I used your "straw" method (and also the "Q-Tip" method) to feed it...After about 30 sessions at feeding it, it suddenly perked up, opened its' eyes, canted it's head in a questioning manner and suddenly lifted, like a drone, off of my kitchen table, flew up and landed on my ceiling fan. I gently captured it and took it outside where it flew back into the wild. Thanks again!!!
Hummingbirds are very smart. In proportion their brain is larger than a human's. They remember every flower they've visited and can recognize faces. Truly amazing creatures...
You can too! Just keep an eye out in hummingbird season! Keep feeders in your yard to encourage them to visit! And one day youll see a baby on the ground, its not uncommon!
Excellent job there,young lady! Just watching that little thing buzzing around in the bathroom gave me goosebumps lol. What a delicate little creatures hummers are.
I just got an adult hummingbird from my cats, it's head is bleeding but I'll try the straw trick and take him to wild life center tomorrow. I hope the little guy makes it through the night. Thanks for posting this video
This is lovely to see, and helpful for us, as our dog caught a hummingbird. We are now making sure to take good care of it, and it looks promising. Didn't know about the straw. Our dog even wears a bell. Thanks for sharing this, showing us the gentle side of people, and god bless those folks who likely look after injured birds out of their very own pocket, all hours of the day as volunteers!
Eh, so what happened to the poor thing? please tell us what happened to the bird after she was dropped off. Any pictures or video of it in a healthy state would be really wonderful. God bless and thank you for taking care of a little helpless creature. Jesus loves you.
Hello, I have a injured hummingbird for the last two weeks. A female, she has a sprained or possibly broken wing of which she can flutter, but not with the span of the other; hence she cannot fly. I have been feeding her with sugar water that I purchased and doing some study last week, she cannot survive on sugar water alone so I have been giving her milligram amounts of boiled egg yoke for protein. After a week she is gaining strength, but not enough to fly. What should I do with this tiny bird? She takes up to 3 to 4 cc's of fortified sugar water. I am concerned that since she does not fly and is not expending the energy that she used to am I going overboard with feeding her so much carbohydrates in the fortified sugar water that I am giving her. She is very tame now and has taken to me. I feel very badly for this tiny creature. I have raised sparrows and one crow which were released to the wild. But this one... I don't don't know if she will survive or ever fly again. What do you suggest I do with her? She is in a box with sun flowers that I have put in with her and she does go to them as well. I have contacted others, wildlife rehabilitators her in AZ and they say just put her outside and let "nature take its course"... Doing that now will break my heart...
Found one in my yard, flopping on the ground, picked it up before the cat could grab it, blood on my hand from its underside, got it to drink sugar water, it got out of the box it’s now on the floor in front of the glass door, I will take it outside in the morning
My son just found an injured hummingbird on the sidewalk and he's going to feed him sugar water all night until we can get him to a rehab place in the morning. We think its wing is broken. 😢
Great job u did with her. i love hummingbirds, so today at work i found a bby hummingbird which appeared to look injured, i fed her sugar water and she took it. i even got to held her, i was wondering if u can send me the address or ph number to the center. i dont think i can take care of her as well as bob. thank u

They'll put it down if they can't rehabilitate. 😢
@@whispergirl77 Yes, it ended up dying before we could get it anywhere. It was so sad.

i live in pomona ca so san dimas isnt too far from me
I found one with a broken leg and wing what do I do 😰
Rotten cats! One killed 2 baby hummingbirds who were ready to start flying after I watched them grow from tiny eggs!
I just found a humming bird.. It was tweeting thought it was a mouse. Turns out it was a humming bird all beat up from my cat:/
@@blueflamez7863 I hope it was able to get some care after the fact
@@muaowa I took care of it
the oppressed(in need) is always cute
I have a humming bird with a broken wing i am giving it honey wirh water o want her to get better but dont want it to suffer
Good job with the straw! Most videos i see people drench the baby hummingbirds in sugarwater and they end up looking like a greasy stray cat...
That is a female humming bird. Because they have gray or silver feathers on their chin and chest. 🐦
Bird look very hungry that's why came to to her hands to drink juice otherwise bird remains away
Brave wilder nis
