  • That is so cool. You must be in the migation route. I have never seen so may at one time.

  • Amazing Video Dale! I am jealous I am lucky to see one in a season, looks like maybe multiple feeders is the key .. and for me maybe less cats around.. this is a wonderful video , can't believe how many I bet you couldn't even count them all..:)

  • @dianemummvideos Awwwwwwwww! Thanks Diane! Yes, cats could be a factor! LOL We only get down to Michelle's aunt's house a few times a year during "hummingbird season" but it's a sight to behold! I'm always amazed seeing them and having them fly all around me. Thanks so much for subscribing!

  • That's really great you are so diligent about rotating and cleaning the feeders. How do you sanitize them? OH...I don't get nearly as many hummers as you do...but enough to be pleasantly happy watching them...and busy cleaning and filling feeders.

    Your video is especially nice...would enjoy seeing more.

  • @hummingbirdlady11 Oh those aren't my hummingbirds or feeders. They are my girlfriend's aunt's. I have no idea how she cleans them. She does all that in the early morning hours before I wake up LOL Are you going to put up a video of yours? I'd really like to see them!

  • @mediamaker2000 I don't have anything to make a video...just enjoyed yours video very much.

  • @hummingbirdlady11 I don't know how she sanitizes them. I'll try to remember to ask her. From what I've read in the past, vinegar will not sanitize, only a 10% solution of bleach in water will. Vinegar is a good cleaner but not a sanitizer. Have you seen my latest hummingbird video?

  • @mediamaker2000 I just watched it...wow...lots of birds...good video.

  • @hummingbirdlady11 Thank you!

  • Beautiful scenery and sharp clear video. Love all the natural sounds of the birds. Great that the hummers are getting color free sugar water. IMHO the feeders could use a good cleaning with a vinegar water solution and a soft bottle brush.

  • @hummingbirdlady11 Thanks! It's an awesome in sight, sound and scenery. The feeders are rotated, cleaned and sanitized each time one runs out of sugar water which often doesn't even take a day at best. How many hummers do you get in a day per feeder and how often do you clean yours?

  • Thanx so Much Mediamaker!! I'm glad you enjoy my music! Thanx for sharing that!! Rockn'Blues ON!! ~~weez~~

  • @1Azca Thank You Maria!

  • Awesome!

  • @Madamweez Thanks!

  • @Madamweez You do an excellent Blues Bros Sweet Home Chicago! Everybody do a search for Madam Weez on Google! You'll like her!

  • any High speed video?

  • @ScruffyBueno I did one at 60fps that doesn't have alot of action to it so there's not alot to work with. Not like the 1000fps video with the $2500+ camera that Discovery channel uses. Not in my budget. I plan on heading south and getting more footage before the little hummers fly south for the winter. Hopefully I can come up with something that doesn't look too lame.

  • @mediamaker2000 Very cool! Thanks for the info, I'll subscribe for updates.

  • @ScruffyBueno Thanks! I hope to have more before the little guys have to fly south to Mexico and Latin America this year.

  • wow that is crazy

  • @HowToHydroponics No, Crazy is when all the babies are born, learn to fly and come out and feed with the parenst! LOL

  • @mediamaker2000 Oooops, I meant parents! Bad typing, bad! LOL

  • Wow that is a nice video. Great job !!

  • @DBIGMAN812MANY Thanks! I couldn't have done it without the hummingbirds!

  • how beautiful, great footage and what a wonderful sight to see!

  • @stillwaterwhispers Thank you very much! I'm still learning this DSLR so I hope to get better!

  • Awesome...

    Thanks for sharing...

    Only thing we get that swarms like that here is the mosquitoes...

    Have a great one...

    RB

  • @bnbob01 LOL You're welcome. We get tons of mosquitoes here too :-(

  • Beautiful video, Thanks for sharing!

  • @Garrisonpea Thank you! Thanks for watching!

  • Comment removed

  • @Tstormer The babies will be hatching soon if not already, then the swarm will grow. I think she stops feeding them in sometime in September so they will go south and not hang around. You have a really nice channel there!

  • How long did it take for you to build up trust and what they wanted for there to be so many ... I am happy when I see one or two

  • @SasyBecause I'm not sure how long she's been feeding the hummingbirds. I know it's more than 5 years. If you wqalk to the feeders and stay still, they usually come back in a minute or so.

  • That is awesome. We get hummers here too but they fight over the feeder so it's usually only one feeding at a time. You've got a lot of feeders going. Very nice.

    Regards, Gary

  • @garygardens No matter how many feeders she has, they still seem to fight for their position LOLThanks Gary!

  • cooooooool

  • @ptboy4 Thanks!

  • wow that's the most i've seen in one place, nice video.

  • @SheepDog707 Me too! Thanks much!

  • No that is a lot of Humming birds lol

  • @MrStepheninKY Over 428 according to MHPgardener LOL

  • @mediamaker2000 I will take his word for it LOL

  • That is excellent! One buzzed by me the other day and that sound freaked me out.

  • @SleestaksRule Thanks Slee! First time I saw them is when they were swarming like that. I was worried about getting to close LOL

  • That's amazing...hummingbird central and sooo many feeders!! You're a hummingbirds dream come true :-)  Are those ruby throated? Hard to tell..

  • @lotusblossomed It's a sight to see! My best guess is that they're Ruby's but I'm no expert. I only get to see them a few times a year on visits to Michelle's family down south.

  • wow this is the neatest and most unusual hummer video . Amazing , you are lucky .

    what kind of necture you feeding them ??

  • @PurePrairieProduce1 Thanks! She feeds them 4 parts water to one part sugar. Heat the water to make the sugar mix in well, stir and let cool.

  • wow that is so cool : )

  • @Socksee Thank you!

  • Whoa.. I tried to count them. Had to stop at 428. They were just moving too fast and I started feeling dizzy ! ;-) Great camera work !

  • @mhpgardener I've never even tried to count them. That would be futile! Thanks for trying though! LOL

    Feeling dizzy?! Eat two squirrels and watch again in the morning LOL Thanks! This was my first serious attempt at live filming with a DSLR.

  • Wow what a show evidently the more feeders you put up the more hummers you get.

  • @dalecalder2003 Since they fight over the feeders so much, more feeders allow them more time to actually get some food.

  • That is amazing, never seen that many at one time. It is funny to listen to them "argue" with each other.

  • @loislaney23 Yea! Why can't they just get along?! LOL

  • Hmm DUH... I guess that's why they are called 'Hummingbirds'.. Cause you can hear their wings 'humming'..

  • @Watsamadoing Mmmmmmmmmmm could be LOL

  • OH! How small are they?? I thought they were bigger than that. You can hear their wings flapping and all... That's amazing... Was it raining? Unbelievable crisp, clear quality video. Thanks for sharing!

  • @Watsamadoing They can fit in the small of your hand. With that many, they sound like a swarm. It was raining the one day. I filmed over three days there. Thanks! I used my DSLR. You're welcome. More than glad to share!

  • That is very cool, This is something I could watch for hours.

  • @lifeinthailand I've watched them for hours and hours. It's alot of Fun. Thanks!
