Humming Birds of the Americas

[rraudiogal]

Well done vid! Simply beautiful!

[b1aflatoxin]

Very nice video. I enjoyed it very much.

Like WiddoMouse said, don't add food coloring to your nectar solution. Back in the day, people use to redden their solutions with evil liver destroying Red Lake food color. Shame on them!!! Most food colors are molecularly disgusting, and the world would be better off without them. (my 2 cents)

@b1aflatoxin AMEN no coloring!! Red ribbon and I have 2 red spot lights in the yard by the feeders. They do look at them some too. My wife makes me turn them off at night ;) .

[marcelogranda]

Hummingbirds are native of the Americas. There are not species of hummingbirds native to other continents.

[MrMar21457]

nice video but , if humming birds are mostly found in the american continent than why the asian back ground music ?

[juliette251]

hummingbird remind me of angels

[doll367]

@juliette251 awwwwwwwwwww :)



[tipsana]

Sigh - I live east of the Mississippi, so we see only the ruby-throated. I would love to have some of these other variaties in our yards! They are spectacularly colored.

[MorningGloryVine1]

[free6006]

I love hummingbirds, they are so beautiful. I wish there were more in Minnesota. I don't see them very often...

[Ypipable]

They're from the moon I think

[mycatwilatackyou]

your supposed to use a bottle brush to clean the inside of the bottle and do it every day . and yes they can die from the mold

[eonsbeyond]

Was wondering how often to should change the water and just found out. Heard that they were dying from mold because people were not changing the water frequently. I was changing it every couple days this past summer and still noticed that when the temp got real hot mold would show up.

[HappyComfort]

Thank You so much for that wonderful video on humming birds! It was great! And well done! :-D

[vvrsanmarcos]

The Hummingbird at the end of your video (with the split tail)is amazing. What is its name and where are they primarily located?

[patbirder]

Booted Racquet-tail- a common species of Andean cloud forests. They are pretty easy to see in Ecuador around Mindo and Tandayapa among other sites.

[Elyannia]

@vvrsanmarcos It's a peruvian humming bird called "Marvellous Spatuletail" (Loddigesia mirabilis - colibrí cola de espátula) this species is found in the forest edge of the Río Utcubamba region.

[Elyannia]

@Elyannia The Marvellous Spatuletail is unique among birds, for it has just four feathers in its tail. Its most remarkable feature is the male's two long racquet-shaped outer tail feathers that cross each other and end in large violet-blue discs or "spatules". He can move them independently..." this bird appears on the "Nature" (Vida) documentary

[theMilkz]

is it just me, or are hummingbirds freaking scary. it's like they can just stab your eyeballs with their beaks and make a quick getaway. :(

[Masterplaymaker]

omg, you fear hummingbirds, LOL!!! I wanna see you run from the deadly hummingbirds!!

[billeybop]

Good work and thanks for sharing this interesting video!

[WiddoMouse]

Sugar is NOT harmful to them. You make the nectar from one part of white table sugar (sucrose) and 4 parts of water...bring to a boil and immediately cool down. Do not add red coloring.  Do not use brown sugar. Do not use artificial sweetener. Put into a clean feeder and replace with clean nectar every 1 to 6 days (the warmer the weather the more frequent ly you need to replace the nectar.

[taz6122]

@WiddoMouse You do NOT have to bring it to a boil. Make the first part water HOT and mix until dissolved then add the other 3 parts water.

[TheSeramaMan]

@WiddoMouse You are Exactly right... just make sure the sugar is dissolved.

[vulnaviadraco]

@WiddoMouse ...and do NOT use honey! Honey ferments rapidly when mixed with water and most honey is unpasturized (which is why you shouldn't feed it to children under 2 yrs old)

[dfleite13]

@WiddoMouse Yeah but you should put a vitamin complex because birds can't live with sugar and water alone...

[videodude088]

there are praying mantises that can catch and eat hummingbirds. i like hummingbirds, but mantises i like more. muahahaha

[bunniesrule87]

I love birds and rabbits

[PureInsanity00]

@bunniesrule87 I love you.

We know from AL QURAN AL KARIM

The beauty of Paradise (CENNET) is much more than the beauty of whole earth!

Nobody can imagine the beauty of Paradise!

========

For earning paradise we must bring the SHAHADA with whole heart! Is the first step.

ES HE DU EN LA I LA HE IL LAL LAH ve ES HE DU EN NE MU HAM ME DEN RE SUL ALLAH!

For the meaning ask me, I will enjoy answer to you.

[eloaharcturus]

Beatiful birds, God's Creations.

But Sugar is very toxic for them and for us.

Don´t do that please. Sugar can kill them.

They are able to find their food in nature.

If you want that they visit you, so plant many flowers in your yard and they will come a lot. Be sure.

[SezzahMelon]

Nectar doesn't.  I'm pretty sure you can get the mixtures to feed them.

[SezzahMelon]

There is some humming birds that can starve in 2 hours.

[whattodoohwhattodo]

how do they servive when they sleep during the night then??

[SezzahMelon]

This one lives where it is really cold, and it goes into a sort of hibernation at night.

[deepwatertree]

Absolutely beautiful video, thank you. =]

[MoonFlowerGoddess]

This video was amazing! I absolutely love hummingbirds, they're one of my favorite kind of birds. They're so beautiful and tiny, and colorful!

[hellaconia]

beautiful!  just a couple critiques: there are many species of hummingbirds, they are not a single species. and spider webs do not count as "plant material".

[meawela]

love it!
